Absolute asymmetric photocyclization in chiral diarylethene co-crystals with octafluoronaphthalene.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A photochromic diarylethene containing naphthyl groups formed a chiral crystal when co-crystallized with octafluoronaphthalene, although both molecules are achiral, and underwent highly enantioselective photocyclization owing to the conformational confinement in the crystal.

Asymmetric photoreaction of a diarylethene in hydrogen-bonded cocrystals with chiral molecules.
A photochromic diarylethene having 2-methyl-4-pyridyl groups formed chiral cocrystals with (R)- or (S)-1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL). X-ray crystal structure analysis revealed that the diarylethene forms O-H···N type hydrogen bonds with BINOL and the central hexatriene moiety is fixed in P- or M-helix conformation in the cocrystals. The diarylethene molecules underwent reversible cyclization react...
متن کاملEnantiospecific photoresponse of sterically hindered diarylethenes for chiroptical switches and photomemories
Light-driven transcription, replication and enzyme catalysis are critically dependent upon a delicate transfer between molecular and supramolecular chirality. Chemists have well realized the impressive stereospecificity over many thermally accessible cycloaddition with chiral catalysts, but making light work in the enantiomer control of diarylethene photocyclization has proved to be more challe...
متن کاملRationally designed axially chiral diarylethene switches with high helical twisting power.
Three rationally designed axially chiral diarylethene switches were synthesized and their application as chiral dopants for phototunable cholesteric liquid crystal devices was investigated. Design of these molecules was based on the combination of photochromic dithienylcyclopentene core with bridged binaphthyl units as chiral precursors. Aromatic groups were introduced to the molecules at 6,6'-...
متن کاملAbsolute asymmetric photocyclization of isopropylbenzophenone derivatives using a cocrystal approach involving single-crystal-to-single-crystal transformation.
Absolute asymmetric photocyclization of isopropylbenzophenone derivatives was achieved by means of a cocrystal approach. Three chiral salt crystals formed by carboxylic acid derivatives with achiral amines could be prepared by spontaneous crystallization. In the M-crystal of 4-(2,5-diisopropylbenzoyl)benzoic acid with 2,4-dichlorobenzylamine, a twofold helical arrangement occurs in a counterclo...
متن کاملThe absolute asymmetric photoisomerization of a photochromic dithionite complex in chiral crystals.
An achiral photochromic dithionite (micro-O(2)SSO(2)) complex with n-propyl moieties forms chiral crystals and undergoes an enantioselective photoisomerization (ee > 90%) to an oxysulfur (micro-O(2)SOS*O) complex, containing an asymmetric S atom, with essentially 100% interconversion of the chiral crystals.
