The transfer of chirality from a molecular motor to a dynamic helical polymer via ionic interactions was investigated. A dopant with photoswitchable chirality was able to induce a preferred helicity in a poly(phenylacetylene) polymer and the helicity is inverted upon irradiation. The findings described herein will advance the development of functional and responsive polymeric systems.

用非共价键合的光响应分子马达掺杂剂原位控制聚合物的螺旋度

通过离子相互作用研究了手性从分子马达到动态螺旋聚合物的转移。具有光可切换手性的掺杂剂能够在聚（苯乙炔）聚合物中诱导优选的螺旋度，并且在照射时螺旋度被反转。本文所述的发现将促进功能性和响应性聚合物系统的开发。
