Configurational Molecular Glue: One Optically Active Polymer Attracts Two Oppositely Configured Optically Active Polymers

D-configured poly(D-lactic acid) (D-PLA) and poly(D-2-hydroxy-3-methylbutanoic acid) (D-P2H3MB) crystallized separately into their homo-crystallites when crystallized by precipitation or solvent evaporation, whereas incorporation of L-configured poly(L-2-hydroxybutanoic acid) (L-P2HB) in D-configured D-PLA and D-P2H3MB induced co-crystallization or ternary stereocomplex formation between D-conf...

Ultrahigh responsivity of optically active, semicondUcting asymmetric nanochannel diodes

LLE Review, Volume 143 167 Introduction Room-temperature nanodevices based on quantum confinement and/or ballistic nonlinearities are intrinsic nanostructures, not simply scaled-down conventional circuitry, and are gaining wide-spread research attention. Among the nanodevices, one of the most popular is the asymmetric nanochannel diode (ANCD), also referred to as a self-switching diode (SSD), f...

Advances in synthetic optically active condensation polymers – A review

The study of optically active polymers is a very active research field, and these materials have exhibited a number of interesting properties. Much of the attention in chiral polymers results from the potential of these materials for several specialized utilizations that are chiral matrices for asymmetric synthesis, chiral stationary phases for the separation of racemic mixtures, synthetic mole...

A simple asymmetric organocatalytic approach to optically active cyclohexenones.

Optically active 2,5-disubstituted-cyclohexen-2-one derivatives have been prepared in a one-pot process consisting of five reaction steps: an organocatalytic asymmetric conjugated addition of beta-ketoesters to alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes that proceeds in aqueous solutions or under solvent-free conditions has been implemented in a multi-step process.
