A Mechanical Planar Chiral Rotaxane Induces Single‐Handed Helicity in a Twisted Perylene Diimide
A mechanical planar chiral rotaxane (Rmp) is used to induce single‐handed helical chirality (M) in a perylene diimide chromophore, resulting in persistent circular dichroism (CD) and circularly polarised luminescence (CPL). ABSTRACT The twisting of chromophores such as perylene diimides (PDIs) into helical structures affords chiroptical properties from

Cysteine Thioaldehydes: Photolytic Generation, Reactivity, and Biological Implications
Photolysis of cysteine phenacylsulfides bearing non‐conjugating electron‐withdrawing substituents leads to high conversions into cysteine thioaldehydes through a Norrish type‐II pathway. This methodology enabled the study of the aqueous reactivity of these important biosynthetic intermediates, which, depending on peptide sequence, pH and buffer ...

Heterobimetallic Janus Catalysts for the One‐Pot Synthesis of Polar‐Apolar Block Copolymers
Heterobimetallic Janus catalysts act as bifunctional initiators, combining two distinct polymerisation mechanisms in one pot to deliver well‐defined apolar‐polar block copolymers. Combining Earth abundant Ti and Al catalysts for respective α‐olefin and lactone polymerisation, the orthogonal activity is enabled by unprecedented initiation from a Ti ...

Chemical peptide synthesis allows the generation of structurally highly diverse compounds suited for ligand development, but current methods in parallel peptide synthesis limit the achievable library size to a few thousand. A strategy is presented based on combinatorial pairing of short peptides via disulfide linkage that enables the generation and ...
