The controlled formation of complex and functional 1-, 2-, and 3D hierarchical assemblies from molecular building blocks represents a key current challenge. Herein, we report the use of a seeded growth approach for a series of perylenediimide-based molecules (PDIs 1–4) to access otherwise inaccessible self-assembly pathways that yield complex hierarchical structures. The key to the new approach is to use hetero-seeds which possess a different composition and morphology from that of the molecular building block. For example, a nanotube seed (from PDI 3) and a microribbon seed (from PDI 4) were found to initiate different self-assembly pathways for PDI 1, which normally assembles to yield nanocoils. This led to the formation of unprecedented 3D scroll-like and scarf-like hierarchical nanostructures, respectively. Also, the hetero-seeds from PDI 3 initiate hidden self-assembly pathways of PDI 2 to generate 1D tubular heterojunctions. Significantly, this new strategy offers new opportunities to create emergent and functional hierarchical and complex structures from small molecule precursors.

Manipulating the self-assembly pathway is essentially important in the supramolecular synthesis of organic nano- and microarchitectures. Herein, we design a series of photoisomerizable chiral molecules, and realize precise control over pathway complexity with external light stimuli. The hidden single-handed microcoils, rather than the straight microribbons through spontaneous assembly, are obtained through a kinetically controlled pathway. The competition between molecular interactions in metastable photostationary intermediates gives rise to a variety of molecular packing and thereby the possibility of chirality transfer from molecules to supramolecular assemblies.

Females of some lepidopteran species produce novel sex pheromones with a methyl-branched structure, such as 2-methylpent-3-yl 3,13-dimethylpentadecanoate secreted by the bagworm moth Clania variegate. Recently, we have established a simple preparative method for the synthesis of methyl-branched building blocks by utilizing an SN2 reaction of chiral secondary tosylates derived from (S)- and (R)-propylene oxides. The usefulness of these building blocks was demonstrated by their application in the synthesis of all four stereoisomers of an acid moiety in the bagworm pheromone. The enantiomeric purities of all building blocks were confirmed by enantioselective HPLC analysis. We found that a secondary mesylate was superior to the corresponding tosylate because it avoided an elimination side reaction, and racemization in the SN2 reaction was not observed even at high temperature (150 °C). Finally, each optically active acid was esterified with (S)-2-methyl-3-pentanol, which was synthesized by a new route starting from (S)-valine. A simple route to methyl-branched building blocks has been developed by utilizing an S N2 reaction of chiral secondary sulfonates derived from (S)- and (R)-propylene oxides. The usefulness of these building blocks was demonstrated by the stereospecific synthesis of all four stereoisomers of a bagworm pheromone. Copyright

Itraconazole is used clinically as an antifungal agent and has recently been shown to possess antiangiogenic acitivity. Itraconazole has three chiral centers that give rise to eight stereoisomers. The complete role of stereochemistry in the two activities of itraconazole, however, has not been addressed adequately. For the first time, all eight stereoisomers of itraconazole (1a?h) have been synthesized and evaluated for activity against human endothelial cell proliferation and for antifungal activity against five fungal strains. Distinct antiangiogenic and antifungal activity profiles of the trans stereoisomers, especially 1e and 1f, suggest different molecular mechanisms underlying the antiangiogenic and antifungal activities of itraconazole.

Novel optically active phenyl isocyanate derivatives (1-6) bearing an (R)-sec-butoxy, (S)-2-methylbutoxy or (S)-3,7-dimethyloctyloxy group at the meta or para position on the phenyl ring were prepared and polymerized with an anionic initiator in tetrahydrofuran (THF). The resulting polymers from 1, 2, 4 and 6 showed much greater specific rotation than that of the corresponding monomers and an intense circular dichroism (CD) band in the main-chain absorption region, indicating that these polymers have a predominantly one-handed helical conformation in solution. On the other hand, the polymers obtained from 3 and 5 showed a much smaller specific rotation than that of the above polymers at room temperature. The polymers from 2 and 5 showed a remarkable change in optical activity with change in temperature, and the specific rotation of the polymers changed from a positive to a negative value with decrease in temperature. The CD band of the polymers in the absorption region due to the main chain changed from a positive to a negative peak with a change in specific rotation. These results indicate that poly-2 and poly-5 undergo a thermally induced helix-helix transition in THF. The temperature for the helix-helix transition of poly-2 was independent of the degree of polymerization. Poly-2 exhibited a reversible helix-helix transition in chloroform and diethyl ether and also in THF, whereas in toluene and dichloromethane such a transition was not observed. Copyright
