Separation of enantiomers of chiral fullerene derivatives through enantioselective encapsulation within an adaptable helical cavity of syndiotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) with helicity memory. Chirality 2024; 36:e23663. [PMID: 38561600 DOI: 10.1002/chir.23663] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/28/2023] [Revised: 02/20/2024] [Accepted: 03/02/2024] [Indexed: 04/04/2024]
Abstract
Optically active left (M)- and right (P)-handed helical syndiotactic poly(methyl methacrylate)s (M- and P-st-PMMAs) with a helicity memory enantioselectively encapsulated the racemic C60 derivatives, such as 3,4-fulleroproline tert-butyl ester (rac-1) and tetraallylated C60 (rac-2), as well as the C60-bound racemic 310-helical peptides (rac-3) within their helical cavities to form peapod-like inclusion complexes and a unique "helix-in-helix" superstructure, respectively. The enantiomeric excess (ee) and separation factor (enantioselectivity) (α) of the analyte 1 (ee = 23%-25% and α = 2.35-2.50) encapsulated within the helical cavities of the M- and P-st-PMMAs were higher than those of the analytes 2 and 3 (ee = 4.3%-6.0% and α = 1.28-1.50). The optically pure (S)- and (R)-1 were found to more efficiently induce an excess one-handed helical conformation in the st-PMMA backbone than the optically pure (S)- and (R)-1-phenylethylamine, resulting in intense mirror-image vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra in the PMMA IR regions. The excess one-handed helices induced in the st-PMMAs complexed with (S)- and (R)-1 were memorized after replacement with the achiral C60, and the complexes exhibited induced electric CDs in the achiral C60 chromophore regions.

Abstract
Fullerene chemistry has come a long way since 1990, when the first bulk production of C60 was reported. In the past decade, progress in supramolecular chemistry has opened some remarkable and previously unexpected opportunities regarding the selective (multiple) functionalization of fullerenes and their (self)assembly into larger structures and frameworks. The purpose of this review article is to provide a comprehensive overview of these recent developments. We describe how macrocycles and cages that bind strongly to C60 can be used to block undesired addition patterns and thus allow the selective preparation of single-isomer addition products. We also discuss how the emergence of highly shape-persistent macrocycles has opened opportunities for the study of photoactive fullerene dyads and triads as well as the preparation of mechanically interlocked compounds. The preparation of two- or three-dimensional fullerene materials is another research area that has seen remarkable progress over the past few years. Due to the rapidly decreasing price of C60 and C70, we believe that these achievements will translate into all fields where fullerenes have traditionally (third-generation solar cells) and more recently been applied (catalysis, spintronics).

Abstract
Free radical (co)polymerization (FRP/FRcP) of multivinyl monomers (MVMs) has emerged as a powerful strategy for the synthesis of chemically and topologically complex polymers due to its unique reaction kinetics, which enables the preparation of polymers with multiple functional groups and novel macromolecular structures. However, conventional FRP/FRcP of MVMs inevitably leads to insoluble crosslinked materials. Therefore, the development of advanced strategies for the controlled polymerization of MVMs is essential for the preparation of chemically and topologically complex polymers. In this review, we introduce the gelation mechanism of conventional FRP of MVMs and present the strategies of controlled polymerization of MVMs for the preparation of chemically and topologically complex polymers. We also discuss polymers with unique topologies synthesized by controlled polymerization of MVMs, such as crosslinked networks, (hyper)branched, star, cyclic, and single-chain cyclized/knotted structures. Finally, biomedical applications of various advanced polymeric materials prepared by controlled polymerization of MVMs are highlighted and the challenges is this field are discussed.

Abstract
Lithographic patterning, which utilizes the solubility switch of photoresists to convert optical signals into nanostructures on the substrate, is the primary top-down approach for nanoscale fabrication. However, the low light/electron-energy conversion efficiency severely limits the throughput of lithography. Thiol-ene reaction, as a photoinitiated radical addition reaction, is widely known as click reaction in the field of chemistry due to its extremely high efficiency. Here, we introduce a click lithography strategy utilizing the rapid thiol-ene click reaction to realize ultraefficient nanofabrication. This novel approach facilitated by the implementation of ultrahigh-functionality material designs enables high-contrast patterning of metal-containing nanoclusters under an extremely low deep-ultraviolet exposure dose, e.g., 7.5 mJ cm-2, which is 10-20 times lower than the dose used in the photoacid generator-based photoresist system. Meanwhile, 45 nm dense patterns were also achieved at a low dose using electron beam lithography, revealing the great potential of this approach in high-resolution patterning. Our results demonstrated the high-sensitivity and high-resolution features of click lithography, providing inspiration for future lithography design.

Abstract
We report a highly enantio- and helix-sense-selective encapsulation of helical poly(lactic acid)s (PLAs) through a unique "helix-in-helix" superstructure formation within the helical cavity of syndiotactic poly(methyl methacrylate) (st-PMMA) with a one-handed helicity memory, which enables the separation of the enantiomeric helices of the left (M)- and right (P)-handed-PLAs. The M- and P-helical PLAs with different molar masses and a narrow molar mass distribution were prepared by the ring-opening living polymerization of the optically pure l- and d-lactides, respectively, followed by end-capping of the terminal residues of the PLAs with a 4-halobenzoate and then a C60 unit, giving the C60-free and C60-bound M- and P-PLAs. The C60-free and C60-bound M- and P-PLAs formed crystalline inclusion complexes with achiral st-PMMA accompanied by a preferred-handed helix induction in the st-PMMA backbone, thereby producing helix-in-helix superstructures with the same-handedness to each other. The induced helical st-PMMAs were retained after replacement with the achiral C60, indicating the memory of the induced helicity of the st-PMMAs. Both the C60-free and C60-bound helical PLAs were enantio- and helix-sense selectively encapsulated into the helical hollow space of the optically active M- and P-st-PMMAs with the helicity memory prepared using chiral amines. The M- and P-PLAs are preferentially encapsulated within the M- and P-st-PMMA helical cavity with the same-handedness to each other, respectively, independent of the terminal units. The C60-bound PLAs were more efficiently and enantioselectively trapped in the st-PMMA compared to the C60-free PLAs. The enantioselectivities were highly dependent on the molar mass of the C60-bound and C60-free PLAs and significantly increased as the molar mass of the PLAs increased.

Abstract
The thermomechanical properties exhibited by synthetic macromolecules can be directly linked to their tacticity, or the relative stereochemistry of repeat units. The development of stereoselective coordination-insertion polymerization, for example, led to the discovery of isotactic polypropylene, now one of the most widely produced commodity plastics in the world. Widespread interest in controlling polymer tacticity has led to a variety of stereoselective polymerization methodologies; however, this area of polymer science has lagged behind when compared to the ability to control molecular weight, dispersity, and composition. Despite decades of advancements, many stereoregular vinyl polymers remain unknown, particularly those comprised of polar functionality or derived from renewable resources. This Viewpoint provides an overview of recent developments in stereocontrolled polymerization, with an emphasis on propagation mechanism, and highlights successes, limitations, and future challenges for continued innovation.

Abstract
Chiral inorganic nanomaterials are of great interest because of their excellent optical properties. Most of the attention has been focused on the utilization of biomolecules or their derivatives as linkers or templates to control the chiral structure of assembled inorganic nanoparticles. Chiral polymers are promising synthetic materials that can be used to replace their biological counterparts. Here, by using poly(methacrylate hydroxyethyl-3-indole propionate) (PIPEMA) and poly(2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) synthesized via syndioselective reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer polymerization, we successfully realized chiral self-assembly of gold nanorods with strong circular dichroism response in the vis-NIR region. Moreover, the intensity of the chiral signal of the assemblies can be regulated by the molecular weight of the polymers. Notably, although the monomers are achiral and no chiral reagents are involved in their synthesis, the main chains of PIPEMA and PHEMA exhibit a preferred-handed helical conformation, which is the origin of chirality of the nanorod assemblies. The preferred-handed helical conformation of polymers is attributed to their syndiotacticity and stabilized by the steric hindrance of the side groups. The addition of chiral carbon atoms at the side groups does not change the preferred-handedness of the polymer main chain, resulting in the assembled nanorod structures with the same chirality. This strategy provides inspiration for the rational design and synthesis of optically active functional synthetic polymers for the preparation of promising chiral nanomaterials.

Abstract
Inspired by nanotechnologies based on DNA strand displacement, herein we demonstrate that synthetic helical strand exchange can be achieved through tuning of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) triple-helix stereocomplexes. To evaluate the utility and robustness of helical strand exchange, stereoregular PMMA/polyethylene glycol (PEG) block copolymers capable of undergoing crystallization driven self-assembly via stereocomplex formation were prepared. Micelles with spherical or wormlike morphologies were formed by varying the molecular weight composition of the assembling components. Significantly, PMMA strand exchange was demonstrated and utilized to reversibly switch the micelles between different morphologies. This concept of strand exchange with PMMA-based triple-helix stereocomplexes offers new opportunities to program dynamic behaviors of polymeric materials, leading to scalable synthesis of "smart" nanosystems.

Abstract
The development of new or more sustainable, active, efficient, controlled, and selective polymerization reactions or processes continues to be crucial for the synthesis of important polymers or materials with specific structures or functions. In this context, the newly emerged polymerization technique enabled by main-group Lewis pairs (LPs), termed as Lewis pair polymerization (LPP), exploits the synergy and cooperativity between the Lewis acid (LA) and Lewis base (LB) sites of LPs, which can be employed as frustrated Lewis pairs (FLPs), interacting LPs (ILPs), or classical Lewis adducts (CLAs), to effect cooperative monomer activation as well as chain initiation, propagation, termination, and transfer events. Through balancing the Lewis acidity, Lewis basicity, and steric effects of LPs, LPP has shown several unique advantages or intriguing opportunities compared to other polymerization techniques and demonstrated its broad polar monomer scope, high activity, control or livingness, and complete chemo- or regioselectivity, as well as its unique application in materials chemistry. These advances made in LPP are comprehensively reviewed, with the scope of monomers focusing on heteroatom-containing polar monomers, while the polymerizations mediated by main-group LAs and LBs separately that are most relevant to the LPP are also highlighted or updated. Examples of applying the principles of the LPP and LP chemistry as a new platform for advancing materials chemistry are highlighted, and currently unmet challenges in the field of the LPP, and thus the suggested corresponding future research directions, are also presented.

Abstract
This work reports the chemoselective polymerization of polar divinyl monomers, including allyl methacrylate (AMA), vinyl methacrylate (VMA), and 4-vinylbenzyl methacrylate (VBMA), by using simple Lewis pairs comprised of homoleptic rare-earth (RE) aryloxide complexes RE(OAr)₃ (RE = Sc (1), Y (2), Sm (3), La (4), Ar = 2,6-tBu₂C₆H₃) and phosphines PR₃ (R = Ph, Cy, Et, Me). Catalytic activities of polymerizations relied heavily upon the cooperation of Lewis acid and Lewis base components. The produced polymers were soluble in common organic solvents and often had a narrow molecular weight distribution. A highly syndiotactic poly(allyl methacrylate) (PAMA) with rr ~88% could be obtained by the scandium complex 1/PEt₃ pair at -30 °C. In the case of poly(4-vinylbenzyl methacrylate) (PVBMA), it could be post-functionalized with PhCH₂SH. Mechanistic study, including the isolation of the zwitterionic active species and the end-group analysis, revealed that the frustrated Lewis pair (FLP)-type addition was the initiating step in the polymerization.

Abstract
The triple-helix stereocomplex of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) is a unique example of a multistranded synthetic helix that has significant utility and promise in materials science and nanotechnology. To gain a fundamental understanding of the underlying assembly process, discrete stereoregular oligomer libraries were prepared by combining stereospecific polymerization techniques with automated flash chromatography purification. Stereocomplex assembly of these discrete building blocks enabled the identification of (1) the minimum degree of polymerization required for the stereocomplex formation and (2) the dependence of the helix crystallization mode on the length of assembling precursors. More significantly, our experiments resolved binding selectivity between helical strands with similar molecular weights. This presents new opportunities for the development of next-generation polymeric materials based on a triple-helix motif.

Abstract
Isotactic (it-) and syndiotactic (st-) poly(methyl methacrylate)s (PMMAs) form unique crystalline stereocomplexes, which are attractive from both fundamental and application viewpoints. This study is directed at the efficient synthesis of it- and st-stereoblock (it-b-st-) PMMAs via stereospecific living anionic polymerizations in combination with metal-halogen exchange, halogenation, and click reactions. The azide-capped it-PMMA was prepared by living anionic polymerization of MMA, which was initiated with t-BuMgBr in toluene at ⁻78 °C, and was followed by termination using CCl₄ as the halogenating agent in the presence of a strong Lewis base and subsequent azidation with NaN₃. The alkyne-capped st-PMMA was obtained by living anionic polymerization of MMA, which was initiated via an in situ metal-halogen exchange reaction between 1,1-diphenylhexyl lithium and an α-bromoester bearing a pendent silyl-protected alkyne group. Finally, copper-catalyzed alkyne-azide cycloaddition (CuAAC) between these complimentary pairs of polymers resulted in a high yield of it-b-st-PMMAs, with controlled molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions. The stereocomplexation was evaluated in CH₃CN and was affected by the block lengths and ratios.

Abstract
Multivinyl-functionalized γ-butyrolactones, γ-vinyl-γ-methyl-α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone (γVMMBL) and γ-allyl-γ-methyl-α-methylene-γ-butyrolactone (γAMMBL), have been synthesized from biorenewable ethyl levulinate and effectively polymerized by Lewis pairs consisting of an organic N-heterocyclic carbene Lewis base and a strong organo-Lewis acid E(C6F5)3 (E = Al, B). This Lewis pair polymerization is quantitatively chemoselective, proceeds exclusively via polyaddition across the conjugated α-methylene double bond without participation of the γ-vinyl or γ-allyl double bond, and produces high-molecular-weight functionalized polymers with unimodal molecular-weight distributions. The Al-based Lewis pair produces a polymer with approximately 5.5 times higher molecular weight than that produced by the B-based Lewis pair. The resulting vinyl-functionalized polymers are soluble in common organic solvents and stable at room temperature, and can be thermally cured into crosslinked materials.This article is part of the themed issue 'Frustrated Lewis pair chemistry'.

Abstract
Two poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) macromers containing a donor polymer with a polymerizable methacrylate (MA) end group, P3HT-CH₂-MA and P3HT-(CH₂)₂-MA, have been synthesized, and P3HT-(CH₂)₂-MA has been successfully homopolymerized and copolymerized with methyl methacrylate (MMA) into stereoregular brush polymers and graft copolymers, respectively, using chiral ansa-zirconocene catalysts. Macromer P3HT-CH₂-MA is too sterically hindered to polymerize by the current Zr catalysts, but macromer P3HT-(CH₂)₂-MA is readily polymerizable via either homopolymerization or copolymerization with MMA in a stereospecific fashion with both C₂-ligated zirconocenium catalyst 1 and Cs-ligated zirconocenium catalyst 2. Thus, highly isotactic (with mm% ≥ 92%) and syndiotactic (with rr% ≥ 93%) brush polymers, it-PMA-g-P3HT and st-PMA-g-P3HT, as well as well-defined stereoregular graft copolymers with different grafted P3HT densities, it-P(M)MA-g-P3HT and st-P(M)MA-g-P3HT, have been synthesized using this controlled coordination-addition polymerization system under ambient conditions. These stereoregular brush polymers and graft copolymers exhibit both thermal (glass and melting) transitions with Tg and Tm values corresponding to transitions within the stereoregular P(M)MA and crystalline P3HT domains. Acceptor molecules such as C60 can be effectively encapsulated inside the helical cavity of st-P(M)MA-g-P3HT to form a unique supramolecular helical crystalline complex, thus offering a novel strategy to control the donor/acceptor solar cell domain morphology.

Abstract
A one-handed 310 -helical hexapeptide is efficiently encapsulated within the helical cavity of st-PMMA when a fullerene (C60 ) derivative is introduced at the C-terminal end of the peptide. The encapsulation is accompanied by induction of a preferred-handed helical conformation in the st-PMMA backbone with the same-handedness as that of the hexapeptide to form a crystalline st-PMMA/peptide-C60 inclusion complex with a unique optically active helix-in-helix structure. Although the st-PMMA is unable to encapsulate the 310 -helical peptide without the terminal C60 unit, the helical hollow space of the st-PMMA is almost filled by the C60 -bound peptides. This result suggests that the C60 moiety can serve as a versatile molecular carrier of specific molecules and polymers in the helical cavity of the st-PMMA for the formation of an inclusion complex, thus producing unique supramolecular soft materials that cannot be prepared by other methods.
