Item Aggregation-induced polarization (AIP) of derivatives of BINOL and BINAP(2022) Tang, Yao (TTU); Yuan, Qingkai (TTU); Wang, Yu; Zhang, Sai (TTU); Wang, Jia-Yin; Jin, Shengzhou; Xu, Ting; Pan, Junyi; Guilbeau, Collin Ray (TTU); Pleasant, Alyssa Jenae (TTU); Li, Guigen (TTU)The relationship between optical rotations of small chiral molecules with water% in THF has been established. The typical aggregation co-solvent systems resulted in optical rotation amplification and adjustment, defined as aggregation-induced polarization (AIP). The AIP work can serve as a new tool to determine molecular aggregation, especially for those that cannot display aggregation-induced emission (AIE). Therefore, AIP and AIE are anticipated to complement each other. In addition, AIP can also serve as a new transmission tool providing adjusting right- or left-hand polarized lights of a series of individual wavelengths. Since chiral phosphine derivatives are among the most important ligands, this work would benefit research using chiral aggregates to control asymmetric synthesis and catalysts. Therefore, it will find many applications in chemical and materials sciences.Item Aggregation-Induced Polarization (AIP): Optical Rotation Amplification and Adjustment of Chiral Aggregates of Folding Oligomers and Polymers(2022) Tang, Yao (TTU); Zhang, Sai (TTU); Xu, Ting; Yuan, Qingkai (TTU); Wang, Jia-Yin; Jin, Shengzhou; Wang, Yu; Pan, Junyi; Griffin, Isaac (TTU); Chen, Daixiang; Li, Guigen (TTU)The phenomenon of aggregation-induced polarization (AIP) was observed showing optical rotation amplification and adjustment. The relationship between optical rotations of chiral aggregates of multilayered chiral folding oligomers and polymers with water% in THF (fw) has been established accordingly. New multilayered chiral oligomers were synthesized under the asymmetric catalytic systems established by our laboratory recently. These products were well-characterized by UV-vis, NMR, and MALDI-TOF spectra. Absolute stereochemistry (enantio- and diastereochemistry) was assigned by comparison with similar asymmetric induction by the same catalyst in our previous reactions. The present AIP work can serve as a new tool to determine chiral aggregates, especially for those that cannot display emission. AIP would also complement AIE-based CPL since AIP serves as a new tool providing enhanced right- or left-hand polarized lights with individual wavelengths. It will find many applications in chemical and materials science in the future.Item Multilayer 3D Chiral Folding Polymers and Their Asymmetric Catalytic Assembly(2022) Tang, Yao; Jin, Shengzhou; Zhang, Sai; Wu, Guan-Zhao; Wang, Jia-Yin; Xu, Ting; Wang, Yu; Unruh, Daniel; Surowiec, Kazimierz; Ma, Yanzhang; Wang, Shiren; Katz, Courtney; Liang, Hongjun; Li, Yunze; Cong, Weilong; Li, GuigenA novel class of polymers and oligomers of chiral folding chirality has been designed and synthesized, showing structurally compacted triple-column/multiple-layer frameworks. Both uniformed and differentiated aromatic chromophoric units were successfully constructed between naphthyl piers of this framework. Screening monomers, catalysts, and catalytic systems led to the success of asymmetric catalytic Suzuki-Miyaura polycouplings. Enantio- and diastereochemistry were unambiguously determined by X-ray structural analysis and concurrently by comparison with a similar asymmetric induction by the same catalyst in the asymmetric synthesis of a chiral three-layered product. The resulting chiral polymers exhibit intense fluorescence activity in a solid form and solution under specific wavelength irradiation.Item Triple-Columned and Multiple-Layered 3D Polymers: Design, Synthesis, Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE), and Computational Study(2021) Wu, Guanzhao; Liu, Yangxue; Yang, Zhen; Ma, Liulei; Tang, Yao; Zhao, Xianliang; Rouh, Hossein; Zheng, Qixuan; Zhou, Peng; Wang, Jia-Yin; Siddique, Farhan; Zhang, Sai; Jin, Shengzhou; Unruh, Daniel; Aquino, Adelia J. A.; Lischka, Hans; Hutchins, Kristin M.; Li, GuigenConjugated polymers and oligomers have great potentials in various fields, especially in materials and biological sciences because of their intriguing electronic and optoelectronic properties. In recent years, the through-space conjugation system has emerged as a new assembled pattern of multidimensional polymers. Here, a novel series of structurally condensed multicolumn/multilayer 3D polymers and oligomers have been designed and synthesized through one-pot Suzuki polycondensation (SPC). The intramolecularly stacked arrangement of polymers can be supported by either X-ray structural analysis or computational analysis. In all cases, polymers were obtained with modest to good yields, as determined by GPC and 1H-NMR. MALDI-TOF analysis has proven the speculation of the step-growth process of this polymerization. The computational study of ab initio and DFT calculations based on trimer and pentamer models gives details of the structures and the electronic transition. Experimental results of optical and AIE research confirmed by calculation indicates that the present work would facilitate the research and applications in materials.
