enantio-Enriched CPL-active helicene-bipyridine-rhenium complexes

Chem Commun (Camb). 2015 Mar 4;51(18):3754-7. doi: 10.1039/c5cc00453e.

Abstract

The incorporation of a rhenium atom within an extended helical π-conjugated bi-pyridine system impacts the chiroptical and photophysical properties of the resulting neutral or cationic complexes, leading to the first examples of rhenium-based phosphors that exhibit circularly polarized luminescence.
