Through-space conjugated polymers consisting of planar chiral pseudo-ortho-linked [2.2]paracyclophane

Herein, we describe the synthesis and chiroptical properties of through-space conjugated polymers with enantiopure planar chiral (R)- and (S)-pseudo-ortho-disubstituted [2.2]paracyclophane skeletons. The polymers exhibited intense circularly polarized luminescence in dilute solutions due to their conformationally stable planar chiral zigzag structures.
