Discrete Oligocarbamates Exhibit Sequence-Dependent Fluorescence Emission and Quenching.

ABSTRACT: The encoded precision of biological polymers enables a few simple monomers (e.g., four nucleotides in nucleic acids) to create complex macromolecular structures that accomplish a myriad of functions. Similar spatial precision in synthetic polymers and oligomers can be harnessed to create macromolecules and materials with rich and tunable properties. Recent exciting advances in iterative solid- and solution-phase synthetic strategies have led to the scalable production of discrete macromolecules, which in turn has enabled the study of sequence-dependent material properties. Our recent example of a scalable synthetic strategy using inexpensive vanillin-based monomers to create sequence-defined oligocarbamates (SeDOCs) enabled the preparation of isomeric oligomers with different thermal and m
