Chiral induction in a novel self-assembled supramolecular system composed of α-cyclodextrin porous liquids, chiral silver nanoparticles and planar conjugated molecules

Abstract

The newly developed porous liquids known as liquids with permanent microporosity, are of considerable application potential which still has many unknown areas. Herein, a supramolecular system composed of α-cyclodextrin porous...

Elucidating the chirality transfer mechanisms during enantioselective synthesis for the spin-controlled oxygen evolution reaction

“…Therefore, a profound understanding of chirality transfer during the enantioselective synthesis of chiral inorganic materials, in which chiral organic molecules (e.g., amino acids, peptides, and biomolecules) act as a chirality inducer in a liquid state, is urgently needed. 29,30 In the present study, we first scrutinized chirality transfer during the enantioselective synthesis of inorganic materials in a liquid state. Using in-depth conformational analysis of ligand molecules with liquid-state Raman (lq-Raman) measurements and liquid-state Fourier-transform infrared (lq-FTIR) spectroscopy, we demonstrated that the molecular structure of the ligand molecules (as well as the chirality inducer) in a liquid state varied depending on the intrinsic chirality of the organic ligand.…”

An overview on the role of cyclodextrins in the synthesis of silver nanoparticles by chemical reduction

“…Innovative supramolecular systems based on α-CD as a porous liquid and chiral AgNPs were combined with planar conjugated molecules to investigate the chirality-induction mechanism. 115 The α-CD was prepared as a liquid with permanent microporosity (α-CDPL) according to the procedure reported by Wang et al, 116 and mixed with silver nitrate in aqueous solution with stirring at room temperature. Sodium borohydride was then added with stirring for 10 min.…”
