摘要

Abstract

Chirality

commonly found in organisms

biomolecules and nature such as

-amino acids and

-sugars

has been extensively studied in chemistry and biomedical science. Hence

the demand for simple and efficient construction of chiral structures

especially chiral polymers

has been rapidly growing due to their potential applications in chemosensors

asymmetric catalysis and biological materials. However

most chiral polymers reported are prepared directly from chiral monomers/chiral catalysts

the corresponding strategies usually involve tedious and expensive design and synthesis. Fortunately

chirality induction strategies (such as circularly polarized light

chiral solvation and chiral gelation

etc

.) have been known to be highly versatile and efficient in producing chirality from achiral polymers. In this feature article

the current research on chirality induction

transfer and application in achiral polymer systems is summarized. Furthermore

this article discusses some basic concepts

seminal studies

recent advances

the structural design principles

as well as perspectives in the construction and applications of chiral polymers derived from achiral monomers

with the hope to attract more interest from researchers and further advance the development of chiral chemistry.
