Abstract

Distance, orientation, and number controlled porphyrin-peptoid conjugates (PPCs) were efficiently synthesized. Cofacial (1, 2, and 4), slipped-cofacial (3), and unstructured (5) arrangements of porphyrins provided distinct optical and electronic properties characterized by UV-vis and circular dichroism spectroscopy. In addition, ECCD spectra confirmed the handedness of peptoid helices.
