Abstract
Inspired by biological helices (e.g., DNA), artificial helical polymers have attracted intense attention. However, precise synthesis of one-handed helices from achiral materials remains a formidable challenge. Herein, a series of achiral poly(biphenyl allene)s with controlled molar mass and low dispersity were prepared and induced into one-handed helices using chiral amines and alcohols. The induced one-handed helix was simultaneously memorized, even after the chiral inducer was removed. The switchable induction processes were visible to naked eye; the achiral polymers exhibited blue emission (irradiated at 365 nm), whereas the induced one-handed helices exhibited cyan emission with clear circularly polarized luminescence. The induced helices formed stable gels in various solvents with helicity discrimination ability: the same-handed helix gels were self-healing, whereas the gels of opposite-handed helicity were self-sorted. Moreover, the induced helices could separate enantiomers via enantioselective crystallization with high efficiency and switchable enantioselectivity.

Abstract
Micro/nanoparticles with surface microstructures have attracted tremendous attention due to their fascinating structures and properties. Herein, we present the first strategy for producing optically active polymer particles with varying surface microstructures via a template surface modification process in which achiral particles act as the template and helical substituted polyacetylene acts as the chiral component. To prepare the designed chiral-functionalized particles, template particles were first reacted with propargylamine to produce alkynylated template particles. The alkynylated templates further participated in the polymerization of chiral alkyne monomers through a surface grafting precipitation polymerization approach, resulting in achiral particles with surface microstructures covalently bonded with a chiral helical polymer. SEM images ascertain the production of chiral-functionalized particles showing various shapes (jar-like, golf ball-like, and raspberry-like particles). Furthermore, CD and UV-vis absorption spectra demonstrate that the grafted polyacetylene chains adopt a predominantly single-handed helical conformation, thereby affording composite particles with optical activity. Using the established protocol, numerous advanced chiral-functionalized micro/nanostructures are expected to be designed and constructed.

Abstract
The emergence of various resistant bacteria and overuse of antibiotics have led to severe side effects. Therefore, developing efficient and safe antibacterial systems is important. Herein, well-defined antimicrobial material–helical poly(phenyl guanidinium isocyanide) block copolymers with different conformations (l-P3-van, d-P3-van, and dl-P3-van) that connect vancomycin (van) to the polymer through a disulfide bond were synthesized. The prepared antimicrobial materials exhibit broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, low bacterial resistance, and good proteolytic stability. They also overcome the intrinsic resistance of Gram-negative bacteria to van with a 100-fold increase in antimicrobial activity. Interestingly, the conformation of the material promotes its antimicrobial activity. The left-handed helix conformation shows five-fold more antimicrobial activity than the right-handed helical conformation, thereby opening a path for the application of nanochirality in the field of antibiotics. Helical poly(phenyl isocyanide)-based antibacterial materials have been developed, which have a broad antibacterial spectrum and high antibacterial activity and can effectively destroy preformed biofilms.![]()

Abstract
The development of new drugs is accelerated by rapid access to functionalized and D-labeled molecules with improved activity and pharmacokinetic profiles. Diverse synthetic procedures often involve the usage of gaseous reagents, which can be a difficult task due to the requirement of a dedicated laboratory setup. Here, we developed a special reactor for the on-demand production of gases actively utilized in organic synthesis (C2H2, H2, C2D2, D2, and CO2) that completely eliminates the need for high-pressure equipment and allows for integrating gas generation into advanced laboratory practice. The reactor was developed by computer-aided design and manufactured using a conventional 3D printer with polypropylene and nylon filled with carbon fibers as materials. The implementation of the reactor was demonstrated in representative reactions with acetylene, such as atom-economic nucleophilic addition (conversions of 19-99%) and nickel-catalyzed S-functionalization (yields 74-99%). One of the most important advantages of the reactor is the ability to generate deuterated acetylene (C2D2) and deuterium gas (D2), which was used for highly significant, atom-economic and cost-efficient deuterium labeling of S,O-vinyl derivatives (yield 68-94%). Successful examples of their use in organic synthesis are provided to synthesize building blocks of heteroatom-functionalized and D-labeled biologically active organic molecules.

Abstract
The emergence, transference, amplification, and memory of chiroptical activity in supramolecular assemblies, including circularly polarized absorbance and circularly polarized luminescence, remain significant challenges. Herein, an achiral pyridine-substituted coumarin derivative and chiral additives can coassemble into helical nanostructures with fine chiroptical activity via subtle hydrogen-bonding interactions. The resulting supramolecular assemblies remain optically active even after the removal of chiral additives, demonstrating supramolecular chirality can be remembered in the assemblies. More importantly, the removed chiral elements can be reused to achieve continuous circulation and amplification of chirality. This work presents insight into the emergence, transference, amplification, and memory of chirality in a supramolecular assembly system and could be applied to the manufacturing of chiroptical materials.

Abstract
A series of full-color circularly polarized luminescence (CPL)-active materials are fabricated by judiciously combining multifarious chiral nanoarchitectures with achiral fluorescence dyes. The investigated nanoarchitectures include organic polymer nanofibers, organic-inorganic hybrid nanoflowers, and inorganic nanoflowers. The as-prepared chiral nanoarchitectures all can act as handed-selective fluorescence filters to powerfully transform unpolarized fluorescent light into circularly polarized luminescence. Also notable, no interaction is required between chiral and fluorescent components for achieving CPL emission. The present study provides a convenient and universal approach for preparing full-color CPL materials. Following the strategy, numerous chiroptical materials with CPL performance can be expected due to the abundant chiral matters and achiral fluorophores.

Abstract
Chirality and chiral materials demonstrate ever-growing importance. As a new type of chiral material, chiral polymer particles hold huge potential in both scientific research and practical applications. Meanwhile, nonspherical polymer particles (NPPs) have witnessed substantial progress in recent years because of their unique structures and especially the properties distinguishable from the corresponding spherical particles. We hypothesize that combining chirality with NPPs will open up an unprecedented category of advanced materials. The present contribution reports the first protocol for preparing electrosprayed nonspherical chiral particles constructed from chiral helical polymers, using helical substituted polyacetylenes as the model. SEM images demonstrate the successful fabrication of nonspherical chiral particles with tunable morphologies (bowl-, golf- and apple-like particles). Circular dichroism (CD) measurement proves the remarkable optical activity of the particles, which is observed in the predominantly one-handed helical polymer chains. The present work establishes a novel, versatile, and powerful platform for preparing nonspherical chiral polymer particles with controllable morphology.

Abstract
The four most important and well-studied phenomena of mirror symmetry breaking of molecules were analyzed for the first time in terms of available common features and regularities. Mirror symmetry breaking of the primary origin of biological homochirality requires the involvement of an external chiral inductor (environmental chirality). All reviewed mirror symmetry breaking phenomena were considered from that standpoint. A concept of chiral and racemic fields was highly helpful in this analysis. A chiral gravitational field in combination with a static magnetic field (Earth’s environmental conditions) may be regarded as a hypothetical long-term chiral inductor. Experimental evidences suggest a possible effect of the environmental chiral inductor as a chiral trigger on the mirror symmetry breaking effect. Also, this effect explains a conformational transition of the right-handed double DNA helix to the left-handed double DNA helix (B-Z DNA transition) as possible DNA damage.

Abstract
In this manuscript, we designed and synthesized three core cross-linked micelles (M-5L, P-5L, and P-5D) with redox-responsive disulfide bonds in the core and carrying optically active helical polyisocyanide arms. Their arms were different in the helicity of the main chain and the chirality of the side groups. These micelles showed excellent redox-responsiveness to reducing agent. However, because of the different chiralities of the arms, the three micelles exhibited different performances in drug delivery and controlled release. The M-5L micelle carrying left-handed helical arms showed better therapeutic effect than the other two due to the rapid cell membrane permeability.

Abstract
Using biomacromolecule-based nanorods as a chiral source is a creative way to fabricate broadband chiroptically active nanoarchitectures. Herein, right-handedly twisted cellulose nanocrystal (CNC) nanorods, serving simultaneously as a chiral template and a building block, were combined with CuO for constructing composite nanoflowers that showed broadband chiroptical activity. Through calcination, the CuO/CNC nanoflowers can transform into chiral CuO with a flower-like architecture. The established preparation technology is expected to provide various novel broadband chiroptically active nanoarchitectures originating from CNCs and metal oxides.

Abstract
A left-handed helical poly(phenyl isocyanide) bearing a norbornene unit and a Pd(II) complex on each terminus was prepared. The norbornene terminus was core cross-linked with a bisnorbornene linker via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), yielding a star polymer carrying left-handed helical arms decorated with Pd(II) units at the exterior. The optical activities of the helical arms were maintained after the cross-linking reaction. The Pd(II) units on the surface of the star polymer were chain extended with a new phenyl isocyanide bearing three hydrophilic triethylene glycol monomethyl chains, which afforded an amphiphilic star block copolymer carrying helical arms. Such a star block copolymer showed excellent thermoresponsiveness with the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) around 55 °C. This optically active and thermoresponsive star polymer can enantioselectively capture the S-enantiomer of racemic methyl benzyl alcohol solution at a temperature lower than the LCST and precipitated when the temperature was higher than the LCST, leaving the R-enantiomer in the solution. The enantiomeric excess (ee) of the isolated enantiomer is up to 75%.

Abstract
Constructing optically active helical polymer based nanomaterials without using expensive and limited chirally helical polymers has become an extremely attractive research topic in both chemical and materials science. In this study, we prepared a series of optically active helical polymer nanoparticles/graphene oxide (OAHPNs/GO) hybrid nanocomposites through an unprecedented strategy-the co-precipitation of optically inactive helical polymers and chirally modified GO. This approach is named helix-sense-selective co-precipitation (HSSCP), in which the chirally modified GO acted as a chiral source for inducing and further stabilizing the predominantly one-handed helicity in the optically inactive helical polymers. SEM and TEM images show quite similar morphologies of all the obtained OAHPNs/GO nanocomposites; specifically, the chirally modified GO sheets were uniformly decorated with spherical polymer nanoparticles. Circular dichroism (CD) and UV-vis absorption spectra confirmed the preferentially induced helicity in the helical polymers and the optical activity of the nanocomposites. The established HSSCP strategy is thus proven to be widely applicable and is expected to produce numerous functional OAHPNs/GO nanocomposites and even the analogues.

Abstract
Chiral micelles have been drawing ever-increasing attention because of their potentials in mimicking the unique stereochemical effects of enzymes. This article reports on the first success in preparing chiral micelles through self-assembly of helical polyacetylene bearing cholic acid pendants. The micelles were further used as chiral nanoreactor, in which achiral acetylenic monomer smoothly underwent helix-sense-selective polymerization (HSSP). The HSSPs directly established optically active core/shell nanoparticles whose shell and core both were constructed by helical polymers. The shells (or micelles) provided a protective effect for the preferably induced one-handed helical polymer chains in the cores. The present work provides insights into the self-assembly of chiral helical polymers, and also provides a powerful strategy for constructing novel chiral polymer nanoarchitectures.
