Dynamic monitoring of self-assembly by confining conformational changes of butterfly-motion-based molecules†
Abstract
A simple dynamic monitoring strategy for chiral self-assembly is achieved by confining the bent-to-planar evolution observed in N,N′-diphenyl-dihydrodibenzo[a,c]phenazine derivatives (DPAC-R/S-GLD). Besides, this approach provides a facile pathway to fabricate architectures with circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) properties.
