Abstract
Carotenoids tend to form supramolecular aggregates via non-covalent interactions where the chirality of individual molecules is amplified to the macroscopic level. We show that this can also be achieved for non-chiral carotenoid monomers interacting with polysaccharides. The chirality induction in canthaxanthin (CAX), caused by heparin (HP) and hyaluronic acid (HA), was monitored by chiroptical spectroscopy. Electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and Raman optical activity (ROA) spectra indicated the presence of multiple carotenoid formations, such as H- and J-type aggregates. This is consistent with molecular dynamics (MD) and density functional theory (DFT) simulations of the supramolecular structures and their spectroscopic response.

Abstract
Synthetic breakthroughs diversify the molecules and polymers available to chemists. We now report the first successful synthesis of a series of optically-pure 2,2'-tethered binaphthyl-embedded helical ladder polymers based on quantitative and chemoselective ladderization by the modified alkyne benzannulations using the 4-alkoxy-2,6-dimethylphenylethynyl group as the alkyne source, inaccessible by the conventional approach lacking the 2,6-dimethyl substituents. Due to the defect-free helix formation, the circular dichroism signal increased by more than 6 times the previously reported value. The resulting helical secondary structure can be fine-tuned by controlling the binaphthyl dihedral angle in the repeating unit with variations in the 2,2'-alkylenedioxy tethering groups by one carbon atom at a time. The optimization of the helical ladder structures led to a strong circularly polarized luminescence with a high fluorescence quantum yield (28 %) and luminescence dissymmetry factor (2.6×10-3 ).

Abstract
Controlling the supramolecular chirality of a self-assembly system by molecular structure design and external stimuli in aqueous solution is significant but challenging. Here, we design and synthesize several glutamide-azobenzene-based amphiphiles with different length alkyl chains. The amphiphiles can form self-assemblies in aqueous solution and show CD signals. As the number of the alkyl chain of amphiphiles increases, the CD signals of the assemblies can be enhanced. However, the long alkyl chains conversely restrict the isomerization of the azobenzene and the corresponding chiroptical property. Moreover, the alkyl length can determine the nanostructure of the assemblies and exert critical influence on the dye adsorption efficiency. This work exhibits some insights into the tunable chiroptical property of the self-assembly by delicate molecular design and external stimuli, and emphasizes the molecular structure can determine the corresponding application.

Abstract
Herein we describe the self-assembly of an achiral molecule into macroscopic helicity as well as the emergent chiral-selective spin-filtering effect. It was found that a benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide (BTA) motif with an aminopyridine group in each arm could coordinate with AgI and self-assemble into nanospheres. Upon sonication, symmetry breaking occurred and the nanospheres transferred into helical nanofibers with strong CD signals. Although the sign of the CD signals appeared randomly, it could be controlled by using the as-made chiral assemblies as a seed. Furthermore, it was found that the charge transport of the helical nanofibers was highly selective with a spin-polarization transport of up to 45 %, although the chiral nanofibers are composed exclusively from achiral building blocks. This work demonstrates symmetry breaking under sonication and the chiral-selective spin-filtering effect.

Abstract
We report an ultra-fast helix induction and subsequent static helicity memory in poly(biphenylylacetylene) (PBPA-A) assisted by a catalytic amount of nonracemic ammonium salts comprised of non-coordinating tetrakis[3,5-bis(trifluoromethyl)phenyl]borate (BArF- ) as a counter anion. The remarkable acceleration of the helix-induction rate in PBPA-A accompanied by the significant amplification of the asymmetry relies on the two methoxymethoxy groups of the biphenyl pendants, which can gain access to enfold the chiral ammoniums in a crown-ether manner in specific aromatic solvents, leading to ultra-fast helicity induction, which is completed within 30 s. In aromatic solvents, helicity memory is lost rapidly, but is quite stable in long-chain hydrocarbons. The best use of specific solvents for helicity induction and static helicity memory, respectively, provides a highly sensitive chirality sensing system toward a small amount of chiral amines and amino acids when complexed with BArF- .

Abstract
A dynamically racemic helical copolymer composed of an achiral biphenylylacetylene (BPA) bearing methoxymethoxy groups at the 2,2'-positions and 1 mol % of an achiral BPA carrying 2-carboxy-2'-methoxymethoxy groups at the biphenyl pendants was found to fold into an excess one-handed helix with significant amplification of the helicity in the presence of a small amount of optically active amines. The induced macromolecular helicity was retained ("memorized") after removal of the chiral amines. The copolymer had a significant sensitivity for detecting the chirality of chiral amines with a sensitivity more than 10000-fold higher than that of the corresponding homopolymers with no carboxy group, thus showing Cotton effects even in the presence of a 0.01 equiv of an optically active amine. The effects of the substituents at the 4'-position of the biphenyl pendants of the copolymers and the structures of the chiral amines on the macromolecular helicity induction were also investigated.

Abstract
Many structures in nature look symmetric, but this is not completely accurate, because absolute symmetry is close to death. Chirality (handedness) is one form of living asymmetry. Chirality has been extensively investigated at different levels. Many rules were coined in attempts made for many decades to have control over the selection of handedness that seems to easily occur in nature. It is certain that if good control is realized on chirality, the roads will be ultimately open towards numerous developments in pharmaceutical, technological, and industrial applications. This tutorial review presents a report on chirality from single molecules to supramolecular assemblies. The realized functions are still in their infancy and have been scarcely converted into actual applications. This review provides an overview for starters in the chirality field of research on concepts, common methodologies, and outstanding accomplishments. It starts with an introductory section on the definitions and classifications of chirality at the different levels of molecular complexity, followed by highlighting the importance of chirality in biological systems and the different means of realizing chirality and its inversion in solid and solution-based systems at molecular and supramolecular levels. Chirality-relevant important findings and (bio-)technological applications are also reported accordingly.

Abstract
Any polymers composed of racemic repeating units are obviously optically inactive and hence chiral functions, such as asymmetric catalysis, will not be expected at all. Contrary to such a preconceived notion, we report an unprecedented helical polymer-based highly enantioselective organocatalyst prepared by polymerization of a racemic monomer with no catalytic activity. Both the right- and left-handed helical poly(biarylylacetylene)s (PBAs) composed of dynamically racemic 2-arylpyridyl-N-oxide monomer units with N-oxide moieties located in the vicinity of the helical polymer backbone can be produced by noncovalent interaction with a chiral alcohol through deracemization of the biaryl pendants. The macromolecular helicity and the axial chirality induced in the PBAs are retained ("memorized") after complete removal of the chiral alcohol. Accordingly, the helical PBAs with dual static memory of the helicity and axial chirality show remarkable enantioselectivity (86% ee) for the asymmetric allylation of benzaldehyde. The enantioselectivity is slightly lower than that (96% ee) of the homochiral PBAs prepared from the corresponding enantiopure (R)- and (S)-monomers, but is comparable to that (88% ee) of the helical PBA composed of nonracemic monomers of ca. 60% ee.

Abstract
We studied supramolecular chirality induced by circularly polarized light. Photoresponsive azopolymers form a helical intermolecular network. Furthermore, studies on photochemical materials using optical vortex light will also attract attention in the future. In contrast to circularly polarized light carrying spin angular momentum, an optical vortex with a spiral wave front and carrying orbital angular momentum may impart torque upon irradiated materials. In this review, we summarize a few examples, and then theoretically and computationally deduce the differences in spin angular momentum and orbital angular momentum depending on molecular orientation not on, but in, polymer films. UV-vis absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectra are consequences of electric dipole transition and magnetic dipole transition, respectively. However, the basic effect of vortex light is postulated to originate from quadrupole transition. Therefore, we explored the simulated CD spectra of azo dyes with the aid of conventional density functional theory (DFT) calculations and preliminary theoretical discussions of the transition of CD. Either linearly or circularly polarized UV light causes the trans–cis photoisomerization of azo dyes, leading to anisotropic and/or helically organized methyl orange, respectively, which may be detectable by CD spectroscopy after some technical treatments. Our preliminary theoretical results may be useful for future experiments on the irradiation of UV light under vortex.

Abstract
Enormous attention has been paid to upconverted circularly polarized luminescence (UC-CPL). However, so far, chiral species are still needed in UC-CPL materials, either through the covalent or noncovalent bond. Here, we report a general supramolecular coassembly approach for the fabrication of UC-CPL systems from completely achiral components. We have found that an achiral C3-symmetric molecule could form a chiral nanohelix through symmetry breaking, which could serve as a general helical platform to endow achiral guests with induced chirality and CPL activity. Two different photon upconversion systems, namely, triplet-triplet annihilation photon upconversion (TTA-UC) donor/acceptor pairs and inorganic lanthanide upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), are selected. When these two systems coassembled with the chiral nanohelix made from an achiral C3-symmetric molecule, hybrid nanohelix structures formed and UC-CPL activity was induced. Through such an approach, we demonstrated that the fabrication of the UC-CPL materials does not require any chiral molecules. Moreover, we have shown that the polarization of UC-CPL can be tuned by the helicity of the nanohelix, which could be controlled through the seeded vortex. Our work provides a general approach for designing tunable UC-CPL materials from completely achiral motifs, which largely expands the research scope of the CPL materials.

Competition between chiral solvents and chiral monomers in the helical bias of supramolecular polymers. Nat Chem 2021; 13:200-207.

Abstract
Solute-solvent interactions are key for the assembly and proper functioning of biomacromolecules and play important roles in many fields of organic and polymer chemistry. Despite numerous reports describing the effects of (chiral) solvents on helical conformations of (supramolecular) polymers, the combination of chiral solvents and chiral monomers is unexplored. Here we report diastereomeric differences in the supramolecular polymerization of enantiomers of chiral triphenylene-2,6,10-tricarboxamides in chiral chlorinated solvents. Competition between the preferences induced by the stereocentres of the assembled monomers and those present in the solvent molecules results in unforeseen temperature-dependent solvation effects. By combining experiments and mathematical modelling, we show that the observed differences between enantiomers originate from the combined additive entropic effects of stereocentres present in the monomer and in the solvent. Remarkably, copolymerizations show that the chiral solvent can bias the copolymer helicity and thereby overrule the helical preference of the monomers. Our results highlight the importance of cumulative solvation effects in supramolecular polymerizations.

Abstract
Though phospholipids possess chiral centers, their chiral aggregation within bilayer cell membranes has seldom been referred and recognized. Insight into the chirality at higher levels in artificial molecular bilayer assemblies such as vesicles or liposomes is important to better understand biomembrane functions. In this work, we illustrate the fabrication of chiral vesicles with photoresponsive supramolecular chirality and structural transformation property. Cholesterol was conjugated to azobenzene via different spacers, of which molecular chirality underwent transfer to supramolecular level upon aggregation in water. The resultant building block self-assembled into unilamellar vesicles that could respond to light irradiation by showing reversible extension/contraction behavior. Such "breathing" behavior was accompanied with supramolecular chirality inversion from M- to P-handedness, confirmed by the solid-state crystal structure and electronic circular dichroism spectra based on density functional theory. The vesicle membrane behaves as a matrix to accommodate guest molecules via aromatic interactions, which significantly elevated the UV light resistance with respect to the structural and supramolecular chirality transformation. This work offers an unprecedented rational control over supramolecular chirality using photoresponsiveness in vesicular membranes.

Abstract
Recently, the design of novel supramolecular chiral materials has received a great deal of attention due to rapid developments in the fields of supramolecular chemistry and molecular self-assembly. Supramolecular chirality has been widely introduced to polymers containing photoresponsive azobenzene groups. On the one hand, supramolecular chiral structures of azobenzene-containing polymers (Azo-polymers) can be produced by nonsymmetric arrangement of Azo units through noncovalent interactions. On the other hand, the reversibility of the photoisomerization also allows for the control of the supramolecular organization of the Azo moieties within polymer structures. The construction of supramolecular chirality in Azo-polymeric self-assembled system is highly important for further developments in this field from both academic and practical points of view. The postpolymerization self-assembly strategy is one of the traditional strategies for mainly constructing supramolecular chirality in Azo-polymers. The in situ supramolecular self-assembly mediated by polymerization-induced self-assembly (PISA) is a facile one-pot approach for the construction of well-defined supramolecular chirality during polymerization process. In this review, we focus on a discussion of supramolecular chirality of Azo-polymer systems constructed by traditional postpolymerization self-assembly and PISA-mediated in situ supramolecular self-assembly. Furthermore, we will also summarize the basic concepts, seminal studies, recent trends, and perspectives in the constructions and applications of supramolecular chirality based on Azo-polymers with the hope to advance the development of supramolecular chirality in chemistry.

Abstract
We report emerging circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) at 4f-4f transitions when lanthanide (EuIII and TbIII) tris(β-diketonate) embedded to cellulose triacetate (CTA), cellulose acetate butyrate (CABu), D-/L-glucose pentamethyl esters (D-/L-Glu), and D-/L-arabinose tetramethyl esters (D-/L-Ara) are in film states. Herein, 6,6,7,7,8,8,8-heptafluoro-2,2-dimethyl-3,5-octanedionate (fod) and 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptanedione (dpm) were chosen as the β-diketonates. The glum value of Eu(fod)3 in CABu are +0.0671 at 593 nm (5D0→7F1) and −0.0059 at 613 nm (5D0→7F2), respectively, while those in CTA are +0.0463 and −0.0040 at these transitions, respectively. The glum value of Tb(fod)3 in CABu are −0.0029 at 490 nm (5D4→7F6), +0.0078 at 540 nm (5D4→7F5), and −0.0018 at 552 nm (5D4→7F5), respectively, while those in CTA are −0.0053, +0.0037, and −0.0059 at these transitions, respectively. D-/L-Glu and D-/L-Ara induced weaker glum values at 4f-4f transitions of Eu(fod)3, Tb(fod)3, and Tb(dpm)3. For comparison, Tb(dpm)3 in α-pinene showed clear CPL characteristics, though Eu(dpm)3 did not. A surplus charge neutralization hypothesis was applied to the origin of attractive intermolecular interactions between the ligands and saccharides. This idea was supported from the concomitant opposite tendency in upfield 19F-NMR and downfield 1H-NMR chemical shifts of Eu(fod)3 and the opposite Mulliken charges between F-C bonds (fod) and H-C bonds (CTA and D-/L-Glu). An analysis of CPL excitation (CPLE) and CPL spectra suggests that (+)- and (–)-sign CPL signals of EuIII and TbIII at different 4f-4f transitions in the visible region are the same with the (+)-and (–)-sign exhibited by CPLE bands at high energy levels of EuIII and TbIII in the near-UV region.

Abstract
Catalytically active chiral π-conjugated polymers (poly-1(NO)r) bearing pyridine N-oxide pendants were synthesized by ternary copolymerization of a d-glucose-bound diethynyl compound with two types of thieno[3,4-b]thiophene comonomer, one of which contained a pyridine N-oxide group. When the pyridine N-oxide content in the copolymer was 10 mol% (poly-1(NO)0.10), the polymer backbone formed a one-handed helical structure in acetonitrile. Pyridine N-oxide pendants arranged inside the helical cavity of poly-1(NO)0.10 exhibited catalytic activity for the asymmetric allylation of benzaldehydes, producing the corresponding allyl alcohols with up to 43% ee.

Abstract
In this study, we report the synthesis, characterization, and chiroptical properties of azo-group-containing chiral salen type Schiff base Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) complexes absorbed on gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) of 10 nm diameters. Induced circular dichroism (CD) around the plasmon region from the chiral species weakly adsorbed on the surface of AuNP were observed when there were appropriate dipole–dipole interactions at the initial states. Spectral changes were also observed by not only cis-trans photoisomerization of azo-groups but also changes of orientation due to Weigert effect of azo-dyes after linearly polarized UV light irradiation. Spatial features were discussed based on dipole-dipole interactions mainly within an exciton framework.

Abstract
The origin of biological homochirality, e.g., life selects the L-amino acids and D-sugar as molecular component, still remains a big mystery. It is suggested that mirror symmetry breaking plays an important role. Recent researches show that symmetry breaking can also occur at a supramolecular level, where the non-covalent bond was crucial. In these systems, equal or unequal amount of the enantiomeric nanoassemblies could be formed from achiral molecules. In this paper, we presented a brief overview regarding the symmetry breaking from dispersed system to gels, solids, and at interfaces. Then we discuss the rational manipulation of supramolecular chirality on how to induce and control the homochirality in the self-assembly system. Those physical control methods, such as Viedma ripening, hydrodynamic macro- and micro-vortex, superchiral light, and the combination of these technologies, are specifically discussed. It is hoped that the symmetry breaking at a supramolecular level could provide useful insights into the understanding of natural homochirality and further designing as well as controlling of functional chiral materials.

Abstract
The ligand L1 of 4-methyl-2,6-diformylphenol and L2 of 4- tert-butyl-2,6-diformylphenol are synthesized through Schiff base condensation with rac-, ( R)-(+), or ( S)-(-)-1,1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-diamine (BNDA). As a result, the racemic L1rac, L2rac, and enantiopure L1RR, L1SS, L2RR, and L2SS ligands are obtained incorporating Cu(II) and Zn(II) salts by a simple one-pot metal template method. The series of dinuclear complexes of [M2LX2] (here, M = Cu2+, Zn2+; X = acetate ion, chloride ion; L = L1RR, L1SS, L1rac, L2RR, L2SS, L2rac) formulas are obtained in common. Among them, the single crystal X-ray structures for [Zn2L1rac(OAc)2] and [Zn2L1SSCl2] complexes are obtained. The detailed crystal structure and the chiroptical studies performed on these complexes dictates a self-sorting behavior in their self-assembly process and illustrate a chirality transfer from the ligand to the metal center on the complexes. The enantiopure dinuclear complexes [M2LRRX2] and [M2LSSX2] generate enantiopure ΛΛ and ΔΔ isomers, respectively, but the racemic complexes produce only homochiral ΛΛ and ΔΔ assemblies. The detailed studies based on UFLC (Ultra Fast Liquid Chromatography), CD, and single crystal X-ray structure together show the absence of heterochiral ΛΔ mesocate. All these complexes are adapted as catalysts for desymmetrization of various mesodiols, and the enantiopure complexes are found to give efficient enantioselectivity in desymmetrization of mesodiols with benzoyl chloride to monobenzoylated ester providing 98% yield and 92% ee.

Abstract
Chirality, universal characteristics of nature, introduces asymmetry in synthetic materials. Revealing the microscopic asymmetry of macroscopically symmetric materials is the key to control the growth of chiral materials and give full play to their application potential. Materials for photon upconversion (UC) are of great interest for many applications owing to their anti-Stoke luminescence process, especially for chiral UC materials. For the preparation of UC materials, a tiny change in reaction parameters will lead to variations in morphology, phase components, and fluorescence intensity, as well as its chirality. Because of the strict reaction conditions for the formation of chiral UC materials, there are no reports of the successful synthesis of chiral UC materials. Therefore, a facile method for the controllable synthesis of chiral UC materials is highly desired. Herein, chiral-assembled hexagonal prisms of β-NaYF4:Er3+/Yb3+ microcrystals were synthesized to realize the smart manipulation of their morphology as well as a great improvement of the fluorescence efficiency. We proposed a three-stage doped β-NaYF4 crystal growth mechanism on mesoscale regulation, where the fluorescence enhancement principle of chirality was revealed. The enhancement of fluorescence efficiency of chiral UC materials endows their promising application in luminescent displays.

Abstract
An optically active, amphiphilic meta-phenylene ethynylene (m-PE) bearing a chiral amide pendant was designed and synthesized. Living polymerization of m-PE using alkyne-Pd(II) as the initiator afforded well-defined poly(meta-phenylene ethynylene) (m-PPE). These m-PPEs were found to have a stable helical conformation in THF, 1,4-dioxane, and CH₃CN and showed split Cotton effects over the range of 245⁻400 nm. The positive first Cotton effect was observed at a wavelength of approximately 308 nm, and the negative second Cotton effect was observed at a wavelength of approximately 289 nm. The m-PPEs exhibited helical conformational changes in different mixed solvents and showed effective solvent-dependent helix inversion in CHCl₃/THF solutions. The sign of the Cotton effect of m-PPE was inverted at 25 °C by varying the mixing ratio of THF and CHCl₃. Finally, amphiphilic poly(meta-phenylene ethynylene)-block-polyisocyanide containing hydrophilic PPE and hydrophobic PPI segments were facilely prepared using Pd(II)-terminated m-PPE as the macroinitiator. This block copolymer can self-assemble into well-defined spherical nanostructures in a selective THF/CH₃OH solution. This efficient polymerization will open up enormous opportunities for the preparation of functional amphiphilic block copolymers in a wide variety of fields.

Abstract
Herein, we report the preparation of chiral, one-dimensional coordination polymers based on trinuclear paddlewheel helices [M₃(dpa)₄]2+ (M = Co(II) and Ni(II); dpa = the anion of 2,2'-dipyridylamine). Enantiomeric resolution of a racemic mixture of [M₃(dpa)₄]2+ complexes was achieved by chiral recognition of the respective enantiomer by [Δ-As₂(tartrate)₂]2- or [Λ-As₂(tartrate)₂]2- in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), affording crystalline coordination polymers formed from [(Δ-Co₃(dpa)₄)(Λ-As₂(tartrate)₂)]·3DMF (Δ-1), [(Λ-Co₃(dpa)₄)(Δ-As₂(tartrate)₂)]·3DMF (Λ-1), [(Δ-Ni₃(dpa)₄)(Λ-As₂(tartrate)₂)]·(4 - n)DMF∙nEt₂O (Δ-2) or [(Λ-Ni₃(dpa)₄)(Δ-As₂(tartrate)₂)]·(4 - n)DMF∙nEt₂O (Λ-2) repeating units. UV-visible circular dichroism spectra of the complexes in DMF solutions demonstrate the efficient isolation of optically active species. The helicoidal [M₃(dpa)₄]2+ units that were obtained display high stability towards racemization as shown by the absence of an evolution of the dichroic signals after several days at room temperature and only a small decrease of the signal after 3 h at 80 °C.

Abstract
Chirality is a fundamental property of molecules whose spatial symmetry is characterized by the absence of improper rotations, making them not superimposable to their mirror image. Chiral molecules constitute the elementary building blocks of living species and one enantiomer is favoured in general (e.g. L-aminoacids and D-sugars pervade terrestrial homochiral biochemistry) because most chemical reactions producing natural substances are enantioselective. Since the effect of chiral chemicals and drugs on living beings can be markedly different between enantiomers, the quest for practical spectroscopical methods to scrutinize chirality is an issue of great importance and interest. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a topmost analytical technique, but spectrometers currently used are 'blind' to chirality, i.e. unable to discriminate the two mirror-image forms of a chiral molecule, because, in the absence of a chiral solvent, the spectral parameters, chemical shifts and spin-spin coupling constants are identical for enantiomers. Therefore, the development of new procedures for routine chiral recognition would offer basic support to scientists. However, in the presence of magnetic fields, a distinction between true and false chirality is mandatory. The former epitomizes natural optical activity, which is rationalized by a time-even pseudoscalar, i.e. the trace of a second-rank tensor, the mixed electric dipole/magnetic dipole polarizability. The Faraday effect, magnetic circular dichroism and magnetic optical activity are instead related to a time-odd axial vector. The present review summarizes recent theoretical and experimental efforts to discriminate enantiomers via NMR spectroscopy, with the focus on the deep connection between chirality and symmetry properties under the combined set of fundamental discrete operations, namely charge conjugation, parity (space inversion) and time (motion) reversal.

Abstract
Chiral boron dipyrromethenes (BPs) enjoy high fluorescence efficiency at visible to near-IR wavelength regions with a reasonable range of dissymmetry factors. Here, we demonstrate that the (quasi)propeller chirality, similarly to hexagonal propeller in hexaarylbenzene, can be effectively induced in heptaarylated BP. In addition, supramolecular dimer was formed at low temperatures in nonpolar solvent, which exhibits strong bisignate Cotton effects at BP transitions (the couplet amplitude A = 193 M-1 cm-1) in the circular dichroism (CD). Due to the bulky substituents on the propeller blades, but with void space around boron atoms, BP chromophores in the dimer are aligned in a head-to-tail manner with a small torsion (φ ≈ 15°), to avoid fluorescence quenching usually observed in H-type dimer of BPs, exhibiting strong circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) signals (glum = 2.0 × 10-3, Φlum = 0.45). Such supramolecular dimer formation would be viewed as an alternative approach for designing and developing novel chiroptical materials.

Abstract
Herein, we present the first induced chirality of vanillin and its phenolic analogs attached to the chain ends of poly(l,l-lactide) and poly(d,d-lactide). Vanillin analogs were used as chromophoric and luminophoric, but achiral, ring-opening initiators of corresponding chiral cyclic lactides. Induced chirality was evident from clear circular dichroism bands at 270-320 nm due to π-π* and n-π* transitions at the vanillin moiety. However, no circularly polarized luminescence band was detected. Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT calculations suggested the existence of multiple through-space intramolecular CH/O interactions between the ortho-methoxy moiety of vanillin and nearest-neighbor lactic acid units. The terminus sensitively indicated whether the main-chain chirality was l or d.
