Chiral Induction of a Tetrakis(porphyrin) in Various Chiral Solvents.

ABSTRACT: Non-covalent interactions offer an alternative way for developing stimulus-responsive materials such as sensors, machines, and drug-delivery systems. We recently reported that a urethane-equipped tetrakis(porphyrin) forms one-handed helical supramolecular polymers in solution in response to chirality of chiral solvents. Conformational changes in helical sense were detected using circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, which showed that the tetrakis(porphyrin) can possibly be used as a sensor for determining the enantiomeric excess of a chiral analyte. Hence, we studied the scope and limitations of the chiral-induction behavior of tetrakis(porphyrin) to deepen the understanding of tetrakis(porphyrin)-based chiral sensing systems. Herein, we report the chiral-induction behavior of tetrakis(por
