Helicity Induction in Three π‐Conjugated Chromophores by Planar Chirality of Calixamide

Abstract

Shall we twist? Three-dimensional arrangement of π-conjugated chromophores with triple-stranded helicity was achieved by using the planar chirality of m-calix[3]amide (see figure). Based on spectroscopic data and theoretical calculations, the dynamic and preferred helical characters of bithiophene units embedded in the tubular molecule were elucidated, and the absolute configuration was determined.
