Abstract

A spontaneous resolution chiral fluorescent system is prepared by using 2-anthracenecarboxylic acid, and racemic (rac)-1-phenylethylamine or rac-1-cyclohexylethylamine. Although chiral functional organic materials are usually prepared using chiral molecules, in this system, a chiral organic fluorophore, which exhibits fluorescence in the solid state, is prepared from achiral and rac molecules.
