Asymmetric catalyticemulsion polymerization in chiral micelles

Abstract

Achiral substituted acetylene monomers undergo aqueous catalytic emulsion asymmetric polymerizations in chiral micelles consisting of SDS and amino acid, providing optically active helical polymer emulsions. The asymmetric polymerizations lead to one-handed helical polymers, which are the origin of the optical activity of polymer emulsions.
