摘 要:
Macrocyclic molecules with chirality have been studied because of their wide applications in the field of chiral recognition, chiroptical materials, and asymmetric catalysis. Planar chirality of pillar[n] arenes also contributes to many applications. Without bulky substituents, racemization occurs between pillar[n]arene enantiomers. Pillar[5]arenes with stable planar chirality have been formed by introducing bulky substituents into the pillar[5] arene rims. However, pillar [6] arene enantiomers that show stable planar chirality by introducing bulky conjugated moieties have not been reported. Herein, we report stable planar chirality of pillar[6]arene by introducing biphenyl groups into one benzene unit of pillar[6] arene. The enantiomers show thermo-responsive circular di-chroism signals without racemization.
