Abstract
The development of chiral alignment media for measuring anisotropic NMR parameters provides an opportunity to determine the absolute configuration of chiral molecules without the need for derivatization. However, chiral alignment media with a high and robust enantiodiscriminating property for a wide range of chiral molecules are still scarce. In this study, we synthesized cholesterol-end-functionalized helical polyisocyanides from a chiral monomer using a cholesterol-based alkyne-Pd(II) initiator. These stereoregular polyisocyanides form stable and weak anisotropic lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) in dichloromethane systems, exhibiting highly optical activities in both single left- and right-handed helices. The preparation process of the media was straightforward, and the aligning property of the LLCs could be controlled by adjusting the concentration and temperature. Using the chiral polyisocyanides, we extracted the residual dipolar coupling for an enantiomeric pair of isopinocampheol (IPC), as well as a number of pharmaceutical molecules, demonstrating excellent enantiodiscriminating properties for a broad range of chiral compounds.

Abstract
A method for the measurement of residual chemical shift anisotropy in one experiment using a biphasic isotropic/anisotropic lyotropic liquid crystalline medium based on poly-γ-benzyl-l-glutamate as the alignment medium is presented. This approach is demonstrated on the model compound strychnine and neotricone, a depsidone natural product with a questionable structural assignment based on comparison with the closely related excelsione and in-depth density functional theory calculations.
