Highly fluorescent supramolecular gels with chirality transcription through hydrogen bonding

Abstract

A highly fluorescent organogel with transparency was formed through a hydrogen (H)-bonding interaction between a non-fluorescent and achiral 2-(3′,5′-bis-trifluoromethyl-biphenyl-4-yl)-3-(4-pyridin-4-yl-phenyl)-acrylonitrile (CN-TFMBPPE) monomer and chiral sergeant L-tartaric acid (TA) (or D-TA), with gel formation being accompanied by a drastic fluorescence enhancement as well as chirality induction.
