Molecular and supramolecular helicity induction in trityl group-containing compounds: The case of chiral 3,3,3-triphenylpropionic acid derivatives

Add time:08/29/2019    Source:sciencedirect.com

The process of dynamic chirality transmission from permanent chirality element to stereodynamic triphenylmethyl group placed in the distance of 4 bonds, has been studied for series of optically active 3,3,3-triphenylpropionic acid derivatives. Structural analysis, carried out with the use of complementary methods and supported by theoretical calculations, enabled us to determine the mechanism of chirality transmission. The observed chirality transfer phenomenon, demonstrated unequivocally as raising of non-zero Cotton effects in the region of UV absorption of trityl group, is a cascade process driven by weak intramolecular interactions. Despite the much larger inductor-effector distance, the sensitivity in chirogenesis is comparable to other stereodynamic probes reported so far. In the crystalline phase, the combination of trityl group with amino acid moiety results in the formation of helical superstructures, where individual molecules are held together by hydrogen bonding cascades. The proper combination of functionalities in the molecule skeleton allows, to some extent, the control over the association process and authorizes determination of the trityl group as the supramolecular synthon.
