Inherently chiral belt-shaped conjugated macrocycles with strong fluorescence and circularly polarized luminescence

Chem Commun (Camb). 2022 Dec 22;59(2):227-230. doi: 10.1039/d2cc05504j.

Abstract

A pair of inherently chiral belt-shaped conjugated macrocycles were conveniently synthesized starting from 2,7-fluoren[3]arene triflate, and they not only exhibited green fluorescence, but also showed circularly polarized luminescence with a |glum| of 2.0 × 10-3.
