From Supramolecular Chirogenic Systems towards Prospective Functional Materials

Abstract:

This paper presents a succinct overview of recent advances of our research groups in the field of supramolecular chirogenic systems in the solution and in the solid state and consequent progress towards various functional materials having potential applications in different areas of science and technology. The phenomenon of supramolecular chirality, which is a smart combination of supramolecular chemistry and chiral science, is demonstrated with one of the most representative structural motifs amongst existing chirogenic systems, which is based upon the ethane-bridged bis-porphyrinoids. Further progress towards various functional materials is made upon preparation of different thin-films and nanostructures using the same bis-porphyrin architecture. For more practical application of functional materials chiral modification of metal surface is carried out resulting in effective asymmetric catalyst.
