TOPIC
▸　Helical Polymers: Synthesis, Structure, and Function 

❝　In polymer and supramolecular chemistry, the control of helicity and its handedness remain an attractive challenge because of potential applications in chiral materials science. Here we present unique polymers that fold into either a rightor left-handed helical conformation induced by noncovalent chiral interactions followed by dynamic or static helicity memory, which provide novel switchable chiral materials for chromatographic enantioseparation, asymmetric catalysis and chiral sensor. A series of double helices composed of different components and sequences that exhibit specific functions, such as chiral recognition, enantioselective asymmetric catalysis and anisotropic spring-like motion are also briefly described.  　❞
