Abstract
To understand the role of an additional coordination site in the linker in chirality sensing, we designed and synthesized an S-2-methylbutanamido-substituted m-phthalic diamide-linked zinc bisporphyrinate, [Zn2(S-MAABis)] and investigated its ability to sense the chirality of amino acid esters. The 1H NMR spectra and the crystal structure showed that the amido oxygen adjacent to the chiral carbon was coordinated with zinc. NMR and UV-vis titration showed that the binding of [Zn2(S-MAABis)] to amino acid esters occurred via two equilibria, forming 1:1 and 1:2 host-guest complexes. The CD spectra suggested that [Zn2(S-MAABis)] can effectively recognize the absolute configuration of amino acid esters. The sign of the CD spectra remained unchanged during the titration, indicating that the corresponding 1:1 and 1:2 host-guest complexes had the same chirality. This is different from previously studied amino-substituted m-phthalic diamide-linked zinc bisporphyrinate [Zn2(AmBis)], which showed chirality inversion during titration. Theoretical calculations indicated that the additional coordination sites (amido or amino) in the 1:1 host-guest complexes played different roles, leading to differences in chirality. Our studies suggest that the introduction of a coordination site can influence the chirality transfer process, but the results of chirality transfers are dependent on the specific binding modes.

Abstract
Atropisomers hold significant fascination, not only for their prevalence in natural compounds but also for their biological importance and wide-ranging applications as chiral materials, ligands, and organocatalysts. While biaryl and heterobiaryl atropisomers are commonly studied, the enantioselective synthesis of less abundant heteroatom-linked non-biaryl atropisomers presents a formidable challenge in modern organic synthesis. Unlike classical atropisomers, these molecules allow rotation around two bonds, resulting in low barriers to enantiomerization through concerted bond rotations. In recent years the discovery of new configurationally stable rare non-biaryl scaffolds such as aryl amines, aryl ethers and aryl sulfones as well as innovative methodologies to control their configuration have been disclosed in the literature and constitute the topic of this minireview.

Abstract
Optical chirality sensing has gained significant attention in recent years. Within this field, the quest for stereodynamic chiroptical probes capable of detecting cryptochiral guests presents a formidable challenge. Macrocycles exhibiting planar chirality have emerged as promising candidates for amplifying the chirality of cryptochiral guests. In this study, we demonstrate that the formation of host-guest complexes between cryptochiral molecules and planar chiral prismarenes triggers electronic circular dichroism (ECD) signals via host-guest complexation-induced chirality amplification. The absolute configuration of the most stable chiral macrocyclic host-guest complex has been established by resorting to both exciton model and DFT computations. Furthermore, we demonstrated that this supramolecular chirality sensing system can be employed to determine the enantiomeric composition of scalemic mixtures by measuring the ECD bands intensity. The information described here opens the way for the use of prismarenes as stereodynamic probes for sensing of cryptochiral guests.

Abstract
We designed and synthesized a ureido-linked zinc bisporphyrinate [Zn2(UBis)]. CD spectra show that this zinc bisporphyrinate has the ability to sense the chirality of chiral carboxylic acids without derivatization. Our studies suggest that the phenyl ring in the linker forms π-π interactions with porphyrin planes and that the carboxylic acid is coordinated to the zinc in the host-guest complex. DFT calculations show that the bisporphyrin adopts a "Z"-shaped configuration, and that the ureido group forms hydrogen bonds with carboxylic acids. The combination of π-π interactions, coordination interactions and hydrogen bonding interactions leads to the chirality sensing ability of [Zn2(UBis)].

Abstract
A series of metal-organic cages featuring two stereogenic elements, in terms of the twisting of amide moieties within the ligand backbones and the rotation of diazaanthracene segments along the ligand ridges, were exploited. These two chiral components are correlative and serve as relays for transmitting chirality information between the internal and external cages. The chirality information induced by a chiral guest inside the cage cavity can pass through the cage framework and influence the orientation of the diazaanthracene segments on the periphery of the cage. In turn, the chirality of a stereogenic center within the diazaanthracene segments can transfer back into the cavity, enabling discrimination of enantiomeric guests.

Abstract
Herein, we designed a chiral, axially-twisted molecular scaffold (ATMS) using pyridine-2,6-dicarboxamide (PDC) unit as pivot, chiral trans-cyclohexanediamine (CHDA) residues as linkers, and pyrene residues as fluorescent reporters. R,R-ATMS exclusively adopted M-helicity and produced differential response in UV-vis, fluorescence, and NMR upon addition of tartaric acid (TA) stereoisomers allowing naked-eye detection and enantiomeric content determination. Circular dichroism (CD) profile of R,R-ATMS underwent unique changes during titration with TA stereoisomers - while loss of CD signal at 345 nm was observed with equimolar D-TA and meso-TA, inversion was seen with equimolar L-TA. Temperature increase weakened these interactions to partially recover the original CD signature of R,R-ATMS. 2D NMR studies also indicated the significant structural changes in R,R-ATMS in the solution state upon addition of L-TA. Single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD) studies on the crystals of the R,R-ATMS⊃D-TA salt revealed the interacting partners stacked in arrays and ATMS molecules stabilized by π-π stacking between its PDC and pyrene residues. Contrastingly, tightly-packed supramolecular cages comprised of four molecules each of R,R-ATMS and L-TA were seen in R,R-ATMS⊃L-TA salt, and the ATMS molecules contorted to achieve CH-π interactions between its pyrene residues. These results may have implications in modulating the helicity of topologically-similar larger biomolecules.

Abstract
Electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy is a widely employed method for studying chiral analysis, requiring the presence of a chromophore close to a chiral centre. Porphyrinoids are found to be one of the best chromophoric systems serving for this purpose and enabling the application of ECD spectroscopy for chirality determination across diverse classes of organic compounds. Consequently, it is crucial to understand the induction mechanisms of ECD in the porphyrin-based complexes. The present study explores systematically the influence of secondary chromophores, bonded to an achiral zinc porphyrin or to chiral guest molecules, on the B-region of ECD spectra using the time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) calculations. The study analyses the impact of change in both the conformation of achiral porphyrin (host) and change in position and conformation of chiral organic molecule (guest) on the B-band of ECD spectra (energy, intensity, sign of Cotton effect). Finally, conclusions made on model complexes are applied to published experimental data, contributing to a deeper understanding of various factors influencing ECD spectra in chiral systems. In addition, a computer program aimed to help rationalise ECD spectra by visualizing corresponding orbital energies, rotatory strengths, electric and magnetic transition moments, and angles between them, is presented.

Abstract
Positive homotropic artificial allosteric systems are important for the regulation of cooperativity, selectivity and nonlinear amplification. Stereodynamic homotropic allosteric receptors can transmit and amplify induced chirality by the first ligand binding to axial chirality between two chromophores. We herein report stereodynamic allosteric urea receptors consisting of a rotational shaft as the axial chirality unit, terphenyl units as structural transmission sites and four urea units as binding sites. NMR titration experiments revealed that the receptor can bind two carboxylate guests in a positive homotropic allosteric manner attributed to the inactivation by intramolecular hydrogen-bonding between urea units within the receptor. In addition, the VT-CD spectra observed upon binding of the urea receptor with l- or D-amino acid salts in MeCN showed interesting temperature-dependent Cotton effects, based on the differences of the receptor shaft unit and the guest structure. The successful discrimination of hydrocarbon-based side chains of amino acid salts indicated that the input of chiral and steric information for the guest was amplified as outputs of the Cotton effect and the temperature-dependence of VT-CD spectra through cooperativity of positive allosteric binding.

Abstract
This work sheds new light on the stereoselective synthesis of chiral macrocycles containing twisted aromatic units, valuable π-conjugated materials for recognition, sensing, and optoelectronics. For the first time, we use the Curtin-Hammett principle to investigate a chiral macrocyclisation reaction, revealing the potential for supramolecular π-π interactions to direct the outcome of a dynamic kinetic resolution, favouring the opposite macrocyclic product to that expected under reversible, thermodynamically controlled conditions. Specifically, a dynamic, racemic perylene diimide dye (1 : 1 P : M) is strapped with an enantiopure (S)-1,1'-bi-2-naphthol group (P-BINOL) to form two diastereomeric macrocyclic products, the homochiral macrocycle (PP) and the heterochiral species (PM). We find there is notable selectivity for the PM macrocycle (dr = 4 : 1), which is rationalised by kinetic templation from intramolecular aromatic non-covalent interactions between the P-BINOL π-donor and the M-PDI π-acceptor during the macrocyclisation reaction.

Abstract
Technologies that detect circularly polarized light (CPL), particularly in the UV region, have significant potential for various applications, including bioimaging and optical communication. However, a major challenge in directly sensing CPL arises from the conflicting requirements of planar structures for efficient charge transport and distorted structures for effective interaction with CPL. Here, a novel design of an axially chiral n-type organic semiconductor is presented to surmount the challenge, in which a binaphthyl group results in a high dissymmetry factor at the molecular level, while maintaining excellent electron-transporting characteristics through the naphthalene diimide group. Experimental and computational methods reveal different stacking behaviors in homochiral and heterochiral assemblies, yielding different structures: Nanowires and nanoparticles, respectively. Especially, the homochiral assemblies exhibit effective π-π stacking between naphthalene diimides despite axial chirality. Thus, phototransistors fabricated using enantiomers exhibit a high maximum electron mobility of 0.22 cm2 V-1 s-1 and a detectivity of 3.9 × 1012 Jones, alongside the CPL distinguishing ability with a dissymmetry factor of responsivity of 0.05. Furthermore, the material possesses a wide bandgap, contributing to its excellent visible-blind UV-selective detection. These findings highlight the new strategy for compact CPL detectors, coupled with the demonstration of less-explored n-type and UV region phototransistors.

Abstract
Axially chiral diaryl ethers bearing two potential axes find unique applications in bioactive molecules and catalysis. However, only very few catalytic methods have been developed to construct structurally diverse diaryl ethers. We herein describe an NHC-catalyzed atroposelective esterification of prochiral dialdehydes, leading to the construction of enantioenriched axially chiral diaryl ethers. Mechanistic studies indicate that the matched kinetic resolutions play an essential role in the challenging chiral induction of flexible dual-axial chirality by removing minor enantiomers via over-functionalization. This protocol features mild conditions, excellent enantioselectivity, broad substrate scope, and applicability to late-stage functionalization, and provides a modular platform for the synthesis of axially chiral diaryl ethers and their derivatives.

Abstract
Recent discoveries have revealed that mature miRNAs could form highly ordered structures similar to aptamers, suggesting diverse functions beyond mRNA recognition and degradation. This study focuses on understanding the secondary structures of human miR-26b-5p (UUCAAGUAAUUCAGGAUAGGU) using circular dichroism (CD) and chiroptical probes; in particular, four achiral porphyrins were utilized to both act as chiroptical probes and influence miRNA thermodynamic stability. Various spectroscopic techniques, including UV-Vis, fluorescence, resonance light scattering (RLS), electronic circular dichroism (ECD), and CD melting, were employed to study their interactions. UV-Vis titration revealed that meso-tetrakis(4-N-methylpyridyl) porphyrin (H2T4) and meso-tetrakis(4-carboxyphenylspermine) porphyrin (H2TCPPSpm4) formed complexes with distinct binding stoichiometries up to 6 : 1 and 3 : 1 ratios, respectively, and these results were supported by RLS and fluorescence, while the zinc(II) derivative porphyrin ZnT4 exhibited a weaker interaction. ZnTCPPSpm4 formed aggregates in PBS with higher organization in the presence of miRNA. CD titrations displayed an induced CD signal in the Soret region for every porphyrin investigated, indicating that they can be used as chiroptical probes for miR-26b-5p. Lastly, CD melting experiments revealed that at a 1 : 1 ratio, porphyrins did not significantly affect miRNA stability, except for H2TCPPSpm4. However, at a 3 : 1 ratio, all porphyrins, except ZnTCPPSpm4, exhibited a strong destabilizing effect on miRNA secondary structures. These findings shed light on the structural versatility of miR-26b-5p and highlight the potential of porphyrins as chiroptical probes and modulators of miRNA stability.

Abstract
Pillar[4]arene[1]quinone derivatives (PQXs) were synthesized by the oxidation of pillar[5]arenes, which exhibited notable charge transfer (CT) transitions at approximately 485 nm. Successful chiral resolution of two pairs of enantiomeric conformers was achieved. Despite reduced binding affinity, PQXs demonstrated slower racemization kinetics. Visible-light chiroptical induction with a significant dissymmetry factor was attained by complexing PQXs with a chiral guest. The induced enantiomeric excess could be maintained through competitive binding with an achiral guest, offering a promising strategy for chiral sensing and memory.

Abstract
The synthesis of a chiral supramolecular organogel via the hierarchical helical self-assembly of optically active riboflavin and melamine derivatives is described herein. Owing to the photocatalysis of riboflavin and the supramolecular chirality induced in the helically stacked riboflavin/melamine complex, the gel is observed to act as a light-stimulated chiral sensor of optically active alcohols by detecting the change in color from yellow to green. The gel also served as an efficient chiral adsorbent, enabling optical resolution of a racemic compound with high chiral recognition ability.

Abstract
A chiral carbene-catalyzed chemo- and enantioselective reaction with racemic biaryl aldehydes and α-bromoenals is developed for access to axially chiral 2-arylbenzaldehydes through atroposelective dynamic kinetic resolution (DKR) processes. This atroposelective DKR strategy can tolerate a broad scope of substrates with diverse functionalities. The axially chiral 2-aryl benzaldehyde products generally afford moderate to good yields and enantioselectivities. The axially chiral molecules afforded from the current approach are variable through simple transformations to afford axially chiral functional molecules with excellent optical purities.

Abstract
A series of isostructural supramolecular cages with a rhombic dodecahedron shape have been assembled with distinct metal-coordination lability (M8 Pd6 -MOC-16, M=Ru2+ , Fe2+ , Ni2+ , Zn2+ ). The chirality transfer between metal centers generally imposes homochirality on individual cages to enable solvent-dependent spontaneous resolution of Δ8 /Λ8 -M8 Pd6 enantiomers; however, their distinguishable stereochemical dynamics manifests differential chiral phenomena governed by the cage stability following the order Ru8 Pd6 >Ni8 Pd6 >Fe8 Pd6 >Zn8 Pd6 . The highly labile Zn centers endow the Zn8 Pd6 cage with conformational flexibility and deformation, enabling intrigue chiral-Δ8 /Λ8 -Zn8 Pd6 to meso-Δ4 Λ4 -Zn8 Pd6 transition induced by anions. The cage stabilization effect differs from inert Ru2+ , metastable Fe2+ /Ni2+ , and labile Zn2+ , resulting in different chiral-guest induction. Strikingly, solvent-mediated host-guest interactions have been revealed for Δ8 /Λ8 -(Ru/Ni/Fe)8 Pd6 cages to discriminate the chiral recognition of the guests with opposite chirality. These results demonstrate a versatile procedure to control the stereochemistry of metal-organic cages based on the dynamic metal centers, thus providing guidance to maneuver cage chirality at a supramolecular level by virtue of the solvent, anion, and guest to benefit practical applications.

Abstract
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) show particular properties compared to ionic liquids and other traditional organic solvents. Controlled synthesis of chiral materials in DESs is unprecedented due to the complex interplays between DESs and solutes. In this work, all bio-derived chiral DESs were prepared using choline chloride or cyclodextrin as hydrogen bonding acceptors and natural chiral acids as donors, which performed as chiral matrices for the rational synthesis of chiroptical materials by taking advantage of the efficient chirality transfer between the DESs and solutes. In a very selective manner, building units with molecular pockets could facilitate strong binding affinity towards chiral acid components of DESs disregarding the presence of competitive hydrogen bonding acceptors. Chirality transfer from DESs to nanoassemblies leads to chirality amplification in the presence of minimal amounts of entrapped chiral acids, thanks to the spontaneous symmetry breaking of solutes during aggregation. This work utilizes chiral DESs to control supramolecular chirality, and illustrates the structural basis for the fabrication of DES-based chiral materials.

Abstract
Chirality analysis of small molecules for the determination of their enantiopurity is nowadays ruled by streamlined chromatographic methods which utilize chiral stationary phases. Chiroptical probes which rely on host-guest interactions are so far overshadowed by the latter but have the benefit of depending only on common spectroscopic techniques such as CD spectroscopy to distinguish enantiomers and to quantify their ratio. Interest into this receptor-based approach is constantly rising because non-invasive high-throughput screenings with a minimal waste production can be performed. In this study we investigate the possibility to utilize metal-based containers in form of charge-neutral helicates able to recognize anions for this purpose. Key building block of the helicates are triazole units which show rotational freedom and give rise to either a meso-structure or a racemic mixture of the right- and left-handed complex. A chiroptical response of the probe is observed upon recognition of chiral mono- or dicarboxylates and chirality analysis of tartrate is conducted by CD spectroscopy.

Abstract
The construction of macroscopic chiral luminescent aggregates with well-defined structures not only contributes to the development of functional materials but also has significant implications for analyzing chiral transfer and amplification in biological systems and self-assembly systems. Meanwhile, achieving water-soluble chiral metal nanoclusters (NCs) with high photoluminescence (PL) intensity through a convenient method remains a challenge. Herein, we reported the enhanced luminescence of gold nanoclusters stabilized by D-/L-penicillamine (D-/L-AuNCs) induced by poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) through supramolecular self-assembly strategies. FT-IR spectra and zeta potential measurements revealed that supramolecular assembly was driven by the synergistic effect of hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interactions, which effectively limited the intramolecular vibration and rotation of the ligand and reduced nonradiative relaxation, thus improving the luminescence properties of nanoclusters. Interestingly, during the slow solvent evaporation process, chiral entanglement of assemblies was enhanced, forming macroscopic wheat-shaped superstructures. This study enriches the understanding of the self-assembly mechanism of nanoclusters and provides a pathway for constructing NC-based chiroptical materials.

Abstract
The incorporation of chirality endows Pt(II)-based metal-organic complexes (MOCs) with unique potentials in several fields such as nonlinear optics and chiral catalysis. However, the exploration of chiral Pt(II) metallacycles in biological responses remains underdeveloped. Herein, we designed and synthesized two chiral Pt(II) metallacycles 1 and 2 via the coordination-driven self-assembly of chiral 1,1'-spirobiindane-7,7'-diol (SPINOL)-derived ligands and cis-Pt(PEt3)2(OTf)2 (90°Pt). Their structures were well characterized by 1H NMR, 31P{1H} NMR, ESI-TOF-MS, and X-ray crystallography, and their photophysical properties were investigated by UV-vis absorption, fluorescence, and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies. Then, the antitumor activity of the two chiral metallacycles in vitro was further tested. Complexes 1 and 2 exhibited strong cytotoxicity, especially toward the A549 cells. The destruction of the mitochondrial function, the inhibition of the glutathione (GSH)/glutathione disulfide (GSSG) level, and the inactivation of superoxide dismutase (SOD) induced by complexes 1 and 2 led to the massive accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The overloaded ROS then triggered apoptotic cell death, and the release of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) further induced immunogenic cell death (ICD). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first example of Pt(II)-based metallacycles that can induce immunogenic cell death, providing a new strategy for the future design and construction of immune-modulating platinum agents in cancer therapy.

Stereoselective Plasmonic Interaction in Peptide-tethered Photopolymerizable Diacetylenes Doped with Chiral Gold Nanoparticles. Angew Chem Int Ed Engl 2023; 62:e202306751. [PMID: 37483166 DOI: 10.1002/anie.202306751] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/13/2023] [Revised: 07/16/2023] [Accepted: 07/21/2023] [Indexed: 07/25/2023]
Abstract
Designing polymeric systems with ultra-high optical activity is instrumental in the pursuit of smart artificial chiroptical materials, including the fundamental understanding of structure/property relations. Herein, we report a diacetylene (DA) moiety flanked by chiral D- and L-FF dipeptide methyl esters that exhibits efficient topochemical photopolymerization in the solid phase to furnish polydiacetylene (PDA) with desired control over the chiroptical properties. The doping of the achiral gold nanoparticles provides plasmonic interaction with the PDAs to render asymmetric shape to the circular dichroism bands. With the judicious design of the chiral amino acid ligand appended to the AuNPs, we demonstrate the first example of selective chiral amplification mediated by stereo-structural matching of the polymer-plasmonic AuNP hybrid pairs. Such ordered self-assembly aided by topochemical polymerization in peptide-tethered PDA provides a smart strategy to produce soft responsive materials for applications in chiral photonics.

Abstract
The determination of molecular stereochemistry and absolute configuration is an important part of modern chemistry, pharmacology, and biology. Electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopy is a widely used tool for chirality assignment, especially with porphyrin macrocycles employed as reporter chromophores. However, the mechanisms of induced ECD in porphyrin complexes are yet to be comprehensively rationalized. In this work, the ECD spectra of a sterically hindered hexa-cationic porphyrin with two camphorsulfonic acids in dichloromethane and chloroform were experimentally measured and computationally analyzed. The influence of geometric factors such as the position of chiral guest molecules, distortion of the porphyrin macrocycle, and orientation of aromatic and non-aromatic peripheral substituents on the ECD spectra was theoretically studied. Various potential pitfalls, such as a lack of significant conformations and accidental agreement of experimental and simulated spectra, are considered and discussed.

Abstract
Herein, we report a chiral guest's triggered spring-like contraction and extension motions coupled with unidirectional twisting in a novel flexible and 'nano-size' achiral trizinc(ii)porphyrin trimer host upon step-wise formation of 1 : 1, 1 : 2, and 1 : 4 host-guest supramolecular complexes based on the stoichiometry of the diamine guests for the first time. During these processes, porphyrin CD responses have been induced, inverted, and amplified, and reduced, respectively, in a single molecular framework due to the change in the interporphyrin interactions and helicity. Also, the sign of the CD couplets is just the opposite between R and S substrates which suggests that the chirality is dictated solely by the stereographic projection of the chiral center. Interestingly, the long-range electronic communications between the three porphyrin rings generate trisignate CD signals that provide further information about molecular structures.

Abstract
The fabrication of chiral molecules into macroscopic systems has many valuable applications, especially in the fields of optical displays, data encryption, information storage, and so on. Here, we design and prepare a serious of supramolecular glasses (SGs) based on Zn-L-Histidine complexes, via an evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) strategy. Metal-ligand interactions between the zinc(II) ion and chiral L-Histidine endow the SGs with interesting circularly polarized afterglow (CPA). Multicolored CPA emissions from blue to red with dissymmetry factor as high as 9.5 × 10-3 and excited-state lifetime up to 356.7 ms are achieved under ambient conditions. Therefore, this work not only communicates the bulk SGs with wide-tunable afterglow and large circular polarization, but also provides an EISA method for the macroscopic self-assembly of chiral metal-organic hybrids toward photonic applications.

Abstract
Inspired by the signal transduction function of organophosphates in biological systems, bioactive organophosphates were utilized for the first time as chiral nodes to dictate the stereoselective assembly of hydrogen-bonded anionic cages. Phosphonomycin (antibiotics), tenofovir (antivirals), adenosine monophosphate (natural product, AMP) and clindamycin phosphate (antibiotics) were assembled with an achiral bis-monourea ligand, thereby leading to the stereoselective formation of quadruple or triple helicates. The extent of the stereoselectivity could be enhanced by either lowering the temperature or adding stronger-binding cations as templates. With the chiral anionic cages as the host, some enantioselectivity was achieved when binding chiral quaternary ammonium cations.

Abstract
The phenomenon of chirality induced spin selectivity (CISS) has triggered significant activity in recent years, although many aspects of it remain to be understood. For example, most investigations are focused on spin polarizations collinear to the charge current, and hence longitudinal magnetoconductance (MC) is commonly studied in two-terminal transport experiments. Very little is known about the transverse spin components and transverse MC - their existence, as well as any dependence of this component on chirality. Furthermore, the measurement of the CISS effect via two-terminal MC experiments remains a controversial topic. Detection of this effect in the linear response regime is debated, with contradicting reports in the literature. Finally, the potential influence of the well-known electric magnetochiral effect on CISS remains unclear. To shed light on these issues, in this work we have investigated the bias dependence of the CISS effect using planar carbon nanotube networks functionalized with chiral molecules. We find that (a) transverse MC exists and exhibits tell-tale signs of the CISS effect, (b) transverse CISS MC vanishes in the linear response regime establishing the validity of Onsager's relation in two-terminal CISS systems, and finally (c) the CISS signal remains present even in the absence of electric magneto chiral effects, suggesting the existence of an alternative physical origin of CISS MC.

Abstract
A novel triazole fluorescent sensor was efficiently synthesized using binaphthol as the starting substrate with 85% total end product yield. This chiral fluorescence sensor was proved to have high specific enantioselectivity for lysine. The fluorescence intensity of R-1 was found to increase linearly when the equivalent amount of L-lysine (0-100 eq.) was gradually increased in the system. The fluorescence intensity of L-lysine to R-1 was significantly enhanced, accompanied by the red-shift of emission wavelength (389 nm to 411 nm), which was attributed to the enhanced electron transfer within the molecular structure, resulting in an ICT effect, while the fluorescence response of D-lysine showed a decreasing trend. The enantioselective fluorescence enhancement ratio for the maximum fluorescence intensity was 31.27 [ef = |(IL - I0)/(ID - I0)|, 20 eq. Lys], thus it can be seen that this fluorescent probe can be used to identify and distinguish between different configurations of lysine.

Abstract
Negatively surface-charged sulfate cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) are always slowly self-assembled into left-handed cholesteric mesophases. In this work, macroscopic spiral patterns induced by counterclockwise vortex flowing or chiral doping were investigated. Results show that iridescent patterns of the arithmetic spiral, rose spiral, or latitude ripples were generated under the vortex rotation, indicating a severe microphase separation of CNCs. Moreover, the spiral pattern and rotational symmetry were highly correlated to the twisting and flowability of CNCs as well as chiral dopants. Alternatively, the cholesteric pitch and maximum reflective wavelength (λmax) of CNCs were strongly increased by sinistral dopants other than the dextral ones, indicating an enhanced torsion of left-handed CNC mesophases by the dextral dopants. In addition, macroscopic spiral patterns distinctly existed in dextrally doped CNCs owing to a synergistic chiral enhancement. Therefore, the mechanochiral or chemical chiral transition from microscopic twisting to macroscopic spiral provides a potential inspiration for chiral self-organization of biological macromolecules.

Abstract
Understanding the role of solvent in translating molecular anisotropy to supramolecular polymers is in the early stages. A solvent's influence on the strength of different noncovalent interactions can explain anisotropic growth in some cases, but its effect on cooperative processes, particularly in mixed solvents, remains obscure. We report the self-assembly of a series of chiral perylene bisimides in water-cosolvent mixtures, and the results highlight the fascinating influence of solvent-solute interactions on supramolecular anisotropy, both chiral and morphological. The initial assembly is agnostic to solvent composition, resulting in weakly chiral, spherical nanostructures. In an extremely narrow solvent composition range, the nanospheres transform into long, prominently chiral supramolecular polymers. Further, chirality can be fully reversed by changing the good (achiral) cosolvent. We elucidate how solvent modulates specific noncovalent interactions and governs the kinetics and thermodynamics of key processes, such as spontaneous phase segregation, secondary nucleation, and cooperative growth. In the context of supramolecular polymerization, our results encourage one to steer the focus away from the physical attributes of a solvent (polarity, phase diagram, etc.) and toward the complexities of solvent-solute interactions.

Abstract
Sequence-specific recognition of peptides and proteins by synthetic compounds or systems remains a huge challenge in biocompatible media. Here, we report the chiral adaptive recognition (CAR) with sequence specificity of aromatic dipeptides in a purely aqueous solution using an achiral tetraphenylethene-based octacationic cage (1) as both a molecular receptor and chiroptical sensor. 1 can selectively bind and dimerize aromatic dipeptides to form 1 : 2 host-guest complexes with high binding affinity (>1010 M-2), especially up to ∼1014 M-2 for TrpTrp. Given the dynamic rotational conformation of TPE units, achiral 1 can exhibit chiral adaptive responses with mirror-symmetrical circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) spectra to enantiomeric dipeptides via supramolecular chirality transfer in the host-guest complexes. Furthermore, this CAR with sequence specificity of 1 can be applied for molecular recognition of TrpTrp- or PhePhe-containing tetrapeptides, polypeptides (e.g., amyloid β-peptide1-20 and somatostatin), and proteins (e.g., human insulin) with characteristic CD responses.

[PMID: 36768428 PMCID: PMC9917112 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24032099] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/23/2022] [Revised: 01/13/2023] [Accepted: 01/18/2023] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
The interaction of an equilibrium mixture of monomeric and aggregated cationic trans-5,15-bis(N-methylpyridinium-4-yl)-10,15-bis-diphenylporphine (t-H2Pagg) chloride salt with human serum albumin (HSA) has been investigated through UV/Vis absorption, fluorescence emission, circular dichroism and resonant light scattering techniques. The spectroscopic evidence reveals that both the monomeric t-H2Pagg and its aggregates bind instantaneously to HSA, leading to the formation of a tight adduct in which the porphyrin is encapsulated within the protein scaffold (S430) and to clusters of aggregated porphyrins in electrostatic interaction with the charged biomolecules. These latter species eventually interconvert into the final S430 species following pseudo-first-order kinetics. Molecular docking simulations have been performed to get some insights into the nature of the final adduct. Analogously to hemin bound to HSA, the obtained model supports favorable interactions of the porphyrin in the same 1B subdomain of the protein. Hydrophobic and van der Waals energy terms are the main contributions to the calculated ΔGbind value of -117.24 kcal/mol.

Abstract
A chiral small molecule gelator (R)-H3L based on 1,1'-bi-2,2'-naphthol (BINOL)-phosphoric acid was designed and prepared, which spontaneously forms a stable water-induced gel. The gelation mechanism was revealed by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and a number of spectroscopic methods. Addition of Cu2+ improved the gelation ability, and the resultant metal organic gel realized visual enantioselective and chemoselective recognition toward L-histidine from enantiomers of 19 amino acids via gel collapse. The gel showed a highly sensitive response to L-histidine, and as low as 0.01 equiv. of L-histidine relative to the critical gelation concentration of (R)-H3L-Cu caused the gel to collapse. This strategy of regulating the assembly behavior through the interaction of amino acids and metal ions not only provides a simple and direct way to distinguish enantiomers, but also provides insight into how metal ions regulate the organization of biological supramolecular systems.

Abstract
Carboxymethyl-β-cyclodextrins (CM-β-CDs) with five kinds of degrees of substitution were synthesized and characterized. Analytical enantioseparation of six basic drugs containing N-alkyl groups, including pheniramine, chlorpheniramine, labetalol, propranolol, venlafaxine, and trans-paroxol, was achieved by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) using the synthesized CM-β-CD as chiral mobile phase additives. Key influence factors were optimized, including organic modifier, pH value, CM-β-CD with different degrees of substitution, and concentration of CM-β-CD. The mobile phase was composed of methanol and 10 mmol L-1 of phosphate buffer pH 4.0 containing 10 mmol L-1 of CM-β-CD. Peak resolution for six racemic drugs was gradually increased with an increasing degree of substitution of the synthesized CM-β-CD. The stoichiometric ratio and binding constants for the inclusion complex formed by CM-β-CD and enantiomer were determined, which showed that the stoichiometric ratio for each inclusion complex was 1:1.

Abstract
Vancomycin is the best-known of the glycopeptide group antibiotics (GPAs), a family of agents which operate by binding the C-terminal deptide D-Ala-D-Ala. This anionic epitope is an interesting target because it plays a central role in bacterial cell wall synthesis, and is not readily modified by evolution. Accordingly, vancomycin has been in use for >60 years but has only provoked limited resistance. Agents which mimic vancomycin but are easier to synthesise and modify could serve as valuable weapons against pathogenic bacteria, broadening the scope of the GPAs and addressing the resistance that does exist. This article gives an overview of vancomycin's structure and action, surveys past work on vancomycin mimicry, and makes the case for renewed effort in the future.

Abstract
A highly flexible pyrrole-bridged Zn(II)porphyrin dimer has been successfully utilized as an efficient host which enables an accurate determination of the absolute configuration directly for a large number of chiral amino alcohols and 1,2-diols. The addition of substrates resulted in the formation of 1 : 1 sandwich complexes which, after the addition of excess substrates, produced 1 : 2 host-guest complexes. In principle, the 1 : 2 host-guest complexes can be stabilized in three possible conformations, viz. exo-exo, exo-endo, and endo-endo based on how a substrate binds to the metal. The endo-endo conformation is stabilized by two strong interligand H-bonds [O-H⋯O(H)] between encapsulated diols which thereby interlock the stereochemistry. In the absence of such interligand H-bonding interactions, exo-endo binding is preferred as it is indeed observed for amino alcohols which show weaker CD couplets due to the free movement of substrates. The sandwich complexes with amino alcohols show a more intense CD couplet compared to the diols due to the stronger binding of the amine functionality (-NH2) towards a Zn-atom over an alcoholic moiety (-OH). The CD amplitude showed linear dependence with a binding constant for the 1 : 1 sandwich complex upon varying the substrates. Spectroscopic investigations, single crystal X-ray structure determination of four such host-guest complexes and DFT studies have enabled us to rationalize systematically the origin of optical activity unambiguously in the 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 host-guest complexes, which lead to an absolute stereochemical determination of a large number of chiral substrates. The larger vertical and horizontal flexibility of a diethyl pyrrole spacer induces stronger binding of the substrates to form the 1 : 1 complex with a much larger torsional angle along with intense CD couplets. In contrast, a rigid dibenzothiophene-bridged tweezer, due to its limited horizontal and vertical flexibility, facilitates 1 : 2 complexation more as compared to the highly flexible pyrrole-bridged host which results in stronger binding of the substrate with the intense CD couplet for the former.

Abstract
The identification and separation of chiral substances are of importance in the biological, chemical, and pharmaceutical industries. Here, we demonstrate that a focused circularly polarized vortex beam can, in the focal plane, selectively trap and rotate chiral dipolar particles via radial and azimuthal optical forces. The handedness and topological charge of the incident beam have strong influence on identifying and separating behavior: left- and right-handed circular polarizations lead to opposite effects on the particle of trapping and rotating, while the sign of topological charge will change the particle's rotation direction. Such effects are a direct result of the handedness and topological charge manifesting themselves in the directions of the spin angular momentum (SAM) and Poynting vector. The research provides insight into the chiral light-matter interaction and may find potential application in the identification and separation of chiral nanoparticles.

Abstract
Steroid-based liquid crystal polymers and co-polymers have come a long way, with new and significant advances being made every year. This paper reviews some of the recent key developments in steroid-based liquid crystal polymers and co-polymers. It covers the structure–property relationship between cholesterol and sterol-based compounds and their corresponding polymers, and the influence of chemical structure and synthesis conditions on the liquid crystalline behaviour. An overview of the nature of self-assembly of these materials in solvents and through polymerisation is given. The role of liquid crystalline properties in the applications of these materials, in the creation of nano-objects, drug delivery and biomedicine and photonic and electronic devices, is discussed.

Abstract
Optical methods are promising to address the ever-increasing demands for chirality analysis in drug discovery and related fields because they are amenable to high-throughput screening. Circular dichroism-based chiroptical sensing using host-guest chemistry is especially appealing due to the fast equilibrium kinetics, wide substrate scope, and potential for sustainable development. In this Minireview, we give an overview on this emerging field. General aspects of molecular recognition and chirality transfer are analyzed. Chirality sensors are discussed by dividing them into three classes according to their structural features. Applications of these chirality sensors for chirality analysis of the products of asymmetric reactions and for the real-time monitoring of reaction kinetics are demonstrated with selected examples. Moreover, challenges and research directions in this field are also highlighted.

Abstract
With the discovery of the chiral-induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect, it has been recognized that spin and structural spin-orbit coupling (SOC) play important roles in the electro-optical properties of chiral materials. We redefine the spin-dependent current and magnetic moment operators to include chiral-induced SOC in a helical polymer and deduce optical absorption and circular dichroism (CD) formulae. The fine structure in the optical spectra is calculated for a helical polymer described with the tight-binding model. The effects of both the electron orbit and spin on the optical absorption and CD are discussed. Our investigations demonstrate that the synergy between the electron orbit and spin will contribute to higher-sensitivity circularly polarized light (CPL) detection.
