Abstract
Given the need, both academic and industrial, for new approaches and technologies for chiral discrimination of enantiomers, the present work demonstrates the development through rational design and integration of two new chiral platforms (molecular and membranous) for enantioselective recognition through visual as well as microscopic observation. The molecular platform (TPT) is based on the tryptophan derivative developed through the condensation of two tryptophan units with terepthaloyl chloride. While TPT based on l-tryptophan recognizes R-mandelic acid over the S-isomer, the host with reverse chirality (TPDT) recognizes S-mandelic acid over R-isomer. The role of chemical functionality in this sensitive recognition process was established experimentally by developing an analogue of TPT and by judiciously using different chiral analytes. Importantly, a detailed theoretical study at the molecular level revealed the U-shaped conformation of TPT, creating a cavity for accommodating a chiral guest with selective functional interaction resulting in the discrimination of enantiomers. Finally, a chiral polymeric mat of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) (2:3) impregnated with TPT was developed via electrospinning. The resulting fibrous mat was successfully utilized for chiral recognition through microscopic and architectural observation. Hence, the present work reports simple chiral tools for enantiomeric recognition.

Abstract
Studies on self-assembling systems with a controllable morphology responding to light stimulation are significant for revealing the process and mechanism of assembly. Here, a molecule of spiropyran derivative (SP) possessing photoresponsive assembly morphology is constructed. SP self-assembles into irregular sheet-like structures whose morphology can be significantly transformed into regular nanospheres under continuous ultraviolet light stimulation. The UV-vis absorption spectra indicate that 56% of SP are isomerized from closed-ring form (SPC) to open-ring form (SPO) with color changes from colorless to magenta. Furthermore, theoretical calculations demonstrate that SPO-SPO aggregates possess stronger van der Waals forces than do SPC-SPC aggregates and tend to form stable intermediates combined with SPO isomers. Therefore, the isomerization of SP from SPC to SPO and the differences in intermolecular interactions are important factors in the morphological transition. Our study provides an efficient strategy to modulate the assembled morphology, which holds great promise to be applied in the field of smart materials.

Abstract
It is important to identify the effect of assembly and aggregation on the chirality transfer and energy transmission in supramolecular polymer system, since the unordered aggregation is insufficient to promote luminescence enhancement and chirality transfer, even causing the negative effect. Another key issue is to identify the solvent effect on hierarchically chiral self-assembly. Herein, we designed an AIE-core based building block, tetraphenylpyrazine-cholesterol (TPP-Chol), to explore how the solvent component influences chirality transfer and energy transmission of its aggregates and/or assemblies. Interestingly, the hierarchical assembly behavior was realized in the mixture of MeOH/CHCl3 highly dependent on the MeOH content. During the solvent-directed hierarchical assembly, the morphologic transformations, such as nanoribbons with a width of 150 nm, twisted nanoribbons with helical pitch of 420 nm, nanoribbon clusters, and microflowers with an average diameter of 5.5 μm, were realized with obvious chirality amplification for both circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) measurements. The hierarchical assembly of TPP-Chol was also demonstrated by a time-dependent CD test. The work points out the complexity and dynamic of hierarchically chiral self-assembly regulated by the solvent effect, which would be helpful for the development of supramolecular materials with enhanced CPL performance and dynamic chirality.

Abstract
Chiral supramolecular assemblies with helical structures (e. g., proteins with α-helix, DNA with double helix, collagen with triple-helix) as the central structure motifs in biological systems play a crucial role in various physiological activities of living organisms. Variations in chiral structure can cause many abnormal physiological activities. To gain insight into the construction, structural transition, and related physiological functions of these complex helix in natural systems, it is necessary to fabricate artificial supramolecular assemblies with controllable helix orientation as research platform. This review discusses recent advances in chiral supramolecular assembly, including the precise construction and regulation of assembled chiral nanostructures with tunable chirality. Chiral structure-dependent biological activities, including cell proliferation, cell differentiation, antibacterial activity and tissue regeneration, are also discussed. This review not only contributes to further understanding of the importance of chirality in the physiological environment, but also plays an important role in the development of chiral biomedical materials for the treatment of diseases (e. g., tissue engineering regeneration, stem cell transplantation therapy).

Abstract
A simple and general method is presented herein for the in situ preparations of circularly polarized luminescence (CPL)-active microcrystals with a large luminescence dissymmetry factor glum , high fluorescence quantum efficiency (ΦFL ), wide emission color tenability, and well-ordered morphology. The reactions of pyridine-containing achiral molecules 1-7 with chiral camphor sulfonic acid ((±)-CSA) gave crystalline microplates formed by hydrogen bonding interactions between the protonated pyridinium units and the sulfonic anions. The chiral information of CSA are effectively transferred to the microcrystals by hydrogen bonding to afford full-color CPL from deep-blue to red with glum in the order of 10-2 and ΦFL up to 80 %. Moreover, organic microcrystals with high-performance white CPL (ΦFL =46 %; |glum |=0.025) are achieved via the light-harvesting energy transfer between blue and yellow emitters.

Abstract
Supramolecular chirogenesis has emerged as an effective strategy to access symmetry breaking in artificial systems. However, the chirogenic signals suffer from high susceptibility toward environmental variations. An effective strategy has been developed to address this issue by constructing platinum(II)-based tweezer/guest complexes stabilized by two-fold donor-acceptor and PtII -PtII metal-metal interactions. Upon guest encapsulation, the two pincers on the achiral PtII tweezer undergo a stereospecific twist to minimize steric repulsion, thus locking tweezer/guest complexes into the preferred chiral conformations. The induced chiroptical effects display outstanding solvent and temperature tolerance, ascribed to the balance between electrostatic and desolvation effects for the involved non-covalent interactions. Moreover, hierarchical and multi-component supramolecular assembly of tweezer/guest complexes provide a convenient way to modulate chirogeneic signals for their intensities.

Abstract
To reveal the factors governing the chirality transfer from a chiral unimolecule to a supramolecular assembly, we constructed a series of [2]pseudorotaxanes through the intermolecular noncovalent interaction of a pair of chiral binaphthalene crown ethers with achiral secondary ammonium salts with different chromophores, and found that the binaphthalene groups can induce new circular dichroism (CD) signals only in the [2]pseudorotaxane structures between the host crown ethers and the guest molecule with the anthryl group. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations show that the generation of the new CD signal is mainly due to the intermolecular chiral induction between the anthryl group in the guest and the naphthalene groups in the host.
