Aromatic oligoamide foldamers as versatile scaffolds for induced circularly polarized luminescence at adjustable wavelengths

Chem Commun (Camb). 2019 Aug 13;55(66):9825-9828. doi: 10.1039/c9cc04697f.

Abstract

Quinoline oligoamide foldamers appended with non-chiral fluorophores and derivatized with a camphanyl chiral inducer display strong chiroptical properties at tunable wavelengths as proved by CD and CPL spectroscopies. Induced CPL activity with high luminescence dissymmetry factors was observed in the visible range at wavelengths specific to the fluorophores.
