The electronic properties of π-conjugated materials depend on the nature of the interactions
among the constituent chromophores.[1] The π–π stacking interactions present in …

A novel naphthalene monoimide and two unsymmetric chiral diimides (naphthalene and
perylene) were synthesized; for comparison purposes, the perylene monoimide with the …

Conformational changes of proteins are widely used in nature for controlling cellular
functions, including ligand binding, oligomerization, and catalysis. Despite the fact that …

The self‐assembling abilities of several pseudopeptidic macrocycles have been thoroughly
studied both in the solid (SEM, TEM, FTIR) and in solution (NMR, UV, CD, FTIR) states …

A series of four chiral D2 symmetrical macrocycles, in which two 3, 3′-disubstituted Binol
units are bridged by conjugated organic spacers of differing lengths and/or electronic …

The introduction of controllable dynamic features into synthetic receptors represents a step
towards “smart” adaptive nanodevices. We report herein our studies on the construction of …

The reactivity of aromatic dicarboxylic acids, in combination with an axially-chiral, suitable
dibenzylic alcohol, derived from BINOL, has been exploited in one-pot esterification …

Shape-persistent, optically-active arylamide macrocycles have been designed and
approached by using a stepwise, convergent methodology. The source of chirality, an axially …

In this study, an attempt has been made to investigate the structure, dynamics, and stability
of cyclic peptide nanotubes (CPNTs) formed by the self-assembly of cyclic peptides (CPs) …

A novel amphiphilic cyclic peptide composed of two β‐glucosamino acids and one trans‐2‐
aminocyclohexylcarboxylic acid was synthesized and investigated on assembly formation …
