Chiral polymers for resolution of enantiomers

In 1979, the formation of one‐handed helical poly(triphenylmethyl methacrylate) (PTrMA) was found through the helix‐sense‐selective polymerization of methacrylate using chiral anionic initiators, and the existence of a stable helical polymer without chiral side chains was proved. The chiral polymer exhibited unexpected high chiral recognition of various racemic compounds when used as the chiral packing material (CPM) for HPLC, which was commercialized in 1982 as the first chiral column based on an optically active polymer. This success encouraged us to develop further useful commercial chiral packing materials (CPMs) based on polysaccharides, cellulose, and amylose. By using these polysaccharide‐based CPMs, particularly phenylcarbamate derivatives, nearly 90% of chiral compounds can be resolved not only analytically but also preparatively, and several chiral drugs have been produced using the CPMs. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

On Chiral Space Groups and Chiral Molecules

This note explains the relationship (as well as the absence of a relationship) between chiral space groups and chiral molecules (which have absolute configurations).For a chiral molecule,which must crystallize in a chiral space group,the outcome of the absolute configuration determination must be linked to some other properties of the chiral crystal such as its optical activity for the observation to the relevant.     

New Chiral Metal Cluster Systems for Catalytic Asymmetric Syntheses of Chiral Alcohols

The efficient chiral Ru3(CO)12 systems were prepared in situ from Ru3(CO)12 and various chiral diiminoor diamino-diphosphine tetradentate ligands. The systems have been used for the asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of propiophenone in 2-propanol, leading to 1-phenyl-1-propanol in a 98% yield and 96% e.e. The IR study suggests that the carbonyl hydride anion [HRu3(CO)11]^- most probably exists as a principal species under the reaction conditions. The high chiral efficiency may be due to the synergetic effect produced by the neighboring ruthenium atoms and a special chiral micro-environment involving the polydentate ligand and the Ru3 framework.     

Neutral Chiral Tetrakis-Iodo-Triazole Halogen-Bond Donor for Chiral Recognition and Enantioselective Catalysis

Halogen bonding represents a powerful tool in the field of noncovalent interactions. However, applications in enantioselective recognition and catalysis remain almost nonexistent, due in part to the distinct features of halogen bonds, including long covalent and noncovalent bond distances and high directionality. Herein, this work presents a novel chiral tetrakis-iodo-triazole structure as a neutral halogen bond donor for both chiral anion-recognition and enantioinduction in ion-pair organocatalysis. NMR-titration studies revealed significant differences in anion affinity between the halogen bonding receptor and its hydrogen bonding parent. Selective recognition of chiral dicarboxylates and asymmetric induction in a benchmark organocatalytic reaction were demonstrated using the halogen bond donor. Inversions in the absolute sense of chiral recognition, enantioselectivity, and chiroptical properties relative to the related hydrogen donor were observed. Computational modeling suggested that these effects were the result of distinct anion-binding modes for the halogen- versus hydrogen-bond donors.

Single-Layered Chiral Nanosheets with Dual Chiral Void Spaces for Highly Efficient Enantiomer Absorption

Although considerable effort in recent years has been devoted to the development of two-dimensional nanostructures, single-layered chiral sheet structures with a lateral assembly of discrete clusters remain elusive. Here, we report single-layered chiral 2D sheet structures with dual chiral void spaces in which discrete clusters of planar aromatic segments are arranged with in-plane AB order in aqueous methanol solution. The chirality of the sheet is induced by the slipped-cofacial stacks of rectangular plate-like aromatic segments in the discrete clusters which are arranged laterally with up and down packing, resulting in dual chiral void spaces. The chiral nanosheets function as superfast enantiomer separation nanomaterials, which rapidly absorb a single enantiomer from a racemic mixture with greater than 99 % ee.

Chiral Induction and Remote Chiral Communication in Quinoline Oligoamide Foldamers for Determination of Enantiomeric Excess and Absolute Configuration of Chiral Amines and Their Derivatives

Two pentameric foldamers, Q5 and Q5C-S , containing a C−F bond were synthesized based on quinoline oligamide foldamers for the measurement of enantiomeric excess and for the determination of absolute configuration of chiral amines, diamines, amino alcohols, and α-amino acid esters. Chiral induction of Q5 was triggered in situ when the chiral analytes reacted with the C−F bond in Q5 by a N-nucleophilic substitution reaction, leading to a linear correlation between the CD amplitude at the region of quinoline chromophores and the ee values of the chiral analytes, which can be used for the ee determination of chiral analytes. Furthermore, the CD intensity of Q5C-S containing a chiral motif at its C-terminus enhances via remote, favorable chiral communication when the chiral induction was triggered in situ by chiral analytes at the N-terminus matches the original helicity of Q5C-S , but decreases via remote, conflicted chiral communication when the chiral induction is triggered in situ by chiral molecules at the N-terminus mismatches the original one. The system can thus be used for determination of the absolute configuration of chiral analytes, given that the chirality of the chiral motif at the C-terminus of Q5C-S is known.

Chiral Carbon Nanorings: Synthesis,Properties and Hierarchical Self-assembly of Chiral Ternary Complexes Featuring a Narcissistic Chiral Self-Recognition for Chiral Amines

We report the synthesis and chiroptical properties of novel chiral carbon nanorings S p-/Rp-[12]PCPP containing a planar chiral [2.2]PCP unit, and demonstrate that S p-/Rp-[12]PCPP can not only host crown ether 18-Crown-6 to form ring-in-ring complexes with a binding constant 3.35×10³ M⁻¹, but also accommodate the complexes of 18-Crown-6 and S/R-protonated amines to form homochiral S @Sp -/ R @Rp - and heterochiral S @Rp -/ R @Sp - ternary complexes, displaying significantly larger binding constants of up to 3.31×10⁵ M⁻¹ depending on the chiral guests. Importantly, homochiral S @Sp -/ R @Rp - ternary complexes exhibit an enhanced CD signal, while the heterochiral S @Rp -/ R @Sp - ones have a constant CD signal compared with the chiral carbon nanorings, respectively, which suggests that homochiral S @Sp -/ R @Rp - ternary complexes display a highly narcissistic chiral self-recognition for S/R-protonated chiral amines, respectively. Finally, the chiral ternary complexes can be further applied to determine the ee values of chiral guests. The findings highlight a new application of carbon nanorings in supramolecular sensors, beyond the common recognition of π-conjugated molecules.     

Sequential Chiral Induction and Regulator-Assisted Chiral Memory of Pillar[5]arenes

Chirality transfer is widely observed in life processes, and many artificial chiral transfer systems have been developed. In these systems, chiral information is transferred from chiral inducers to chiral acceptors by a direct chiral induction process and a direct chiral memorization process. We have developed ternary nondirect chiral transfer systems based on pillar[5]arenes, in which a third factor was introduced as a regulator. The planar chirality of an acceptor was induced and memorized by a chiral inducer with precise control by a regulator. In the chiral induction period, the feed sequence of the chiral inducer and regulator affected the chiral induction behavior of the chiral acceptor. The chiral memory ability of the acceptor was substantially improved by the combined action of the chiral inducer and regulator.     

Triptycene‐Based Chiral Macrocyclic Hosts for Highly Enantioselective Recognition of Chiral Guests Containing a Trimethylamino Group

A new class of chiral macrocyclic arene composed of three chiral 2,6‐dihydroxyltriptycene subunits bridged by methylene groups was designed and synthesized. Structural studies showed that the macrocyclic molecule adopts a hex‐nut‐like structure with a helical chiral cavity and highly fixed conformation. Efficient resolution was achieved through the introduction of chiral auxiliaries to give a couple of enantiopure macrocycles, which exhibited high enantioselectivity towards three pairs of chiral compounds containing a trimethylamino group.

Spontaneous Chiral Symmetry Breaking for Finite Systems

Theoretical clues are desirable to help uncover the origin of bio‐homochirality in life, as well as the mechanisms for the asymmetric production of functional chiral substances. Here, an open‐to‐matter reaction network based on a model proposed by Plasson et al. is studied. In the extended model, the statistical fluctuations lead the system to break chiral symmetry autonomously, that is, without any initial enantiomeric excess or external influence. In the stability diagrams, we observe regions of parameter space that correspond to racemic, homochiral, chiral oscillatory, and, to our knowledge, for the first time in a chiral model, chaotic regimes. The dependencies of the final concentrations of chiral substances on the parameters are determined analytically and discussed for both the racemic and homochiral regimes.

Chiral polymer-based biointerface materials

Chirality is a unique phenomenon in nature. Chiral interactions play an important role in biological and physiological processes, which provides much inspiration for scientists to develop chiral materials. As a breakthrough from traditional materials, biointerface materials based on chiral polymers have attracted increasing interest over the past few years. Such materials elegantly combine the advantages of chiral surfaces and traditional polymers, and provide a novel solution not only for the investigation of chiral interaction mechanisms but also for the design of biomaterials with diverse applications, such as in tissue engineering and biocompatible materials, bioregulation, chiral separation and chiral sensors. Herein, we summarize recent advances in the study of chiral effects and applications of chiral polymer-based biointerface materials, and also present some challenges and perspectives.
