Article Abstract

Luminescent acentric and homochiral coordination compounds, which possess new topological networks, multiple helical structures and NLO properties, have been generated through the control of a versatile asymmetric ligand as well as inorganic anions, and this suggests a new protocol for preparing acentric and chiral materials.

Chirality, with its intrinsic symmetry-breaking feature, is frequently utilized in the creation of acentric crystalline functional materials that exhibit intriguing optoelectronic properties. On the other hand, the development of chiral crystals from achiral molecules offers a solution that bypasses the need for enantiopure motifs, presenting a promising alternative and thereby expanding the possibilities of the self-assembly toolkit. Nevertheless, the rational design of achiral molecules that prefer spontaneous symmetry breaking during crystallization has so far been obscure.

In order to study the emergence of homochirality during complex molecular systems, most works mainly concentrated on the resolution of a pair of enantiomers. However, the preference of homochiral over heterochiral isomers has been overlooked, with very limited examples focusing only on noncovalent interactions. We herein report on of twin-cavity cages (denoted as ) against heterochiral tris-(2-aminopropyl)amine (TRPN) bearing triple stereocenters.

Although a number of acentric or chiral tetrazole complexes were synthesized from Sharpless reaction, there are no spontaneous resolution Cu(I)-tetrazole compounds from in situ [2 + 3] cycloaddition synthesis that have been reported before. The first enantiomers Δ- and Λ- of metal tetrazole compound [Cu(Tzmp)]n (1) (HTzmp = 3-tetrazolemethylpyridine) were obtained and isolated from in situ [2 + 3] cycloaddition reactions of a flexible organic nitrile (3-cyanomethylpyridine) with sodium azide in the presence of CuCl2 as the Lewis acid. Δ-1 and Λ-1 feature a homochiral helical coordination polymeric system and {4(4).
