This mini-review summarizes the strategies for constructing supramolecular polymers from chiral molecules without chiral centers, as well as providing perspectives on fundamental trends and differences when compared to their counterparts with chiral centers.
The iterative association of monomer units through noncovalent interactions often leads to chiral supramolecular polymers. Monomers comprising these materials can be further divided into those with chiral centers and those without. The latter class is often less studied but attractive since it features monomer designs with chirality at the core rather than the periphery of the molecules. In this mini-review, we summarize the existing strategies to construct supramolecular polymers from chiral molecules with no chiral centers and offer perspectives on fundamental trends and differences between them and their counterparts with chiral centers.
