RT Journal Article T1 Diastereomeric multi-chiral pendant groups: their key role in stimuli-responsive polymeric responses A1 Rodríguez Riego, Rafael A1 Rivadulla Cendal, Elena A1 Quiñoá Cabana, Emilio A1 Freire Iribarne, Félix Manuel K1 Chiroptical switches K1 Diastereomers K1 Helical polymers K1 Helical stretching K1 Solvent polarity AB Chiral information transmission in helical polymers bearing multi-chiral pen-dant groups is usually determined by the absolute configuration of the first chi-ral center. The second chiral residue usually has low-to-null influence in themacromolecular handedness of the polymer, due to its remote position respectto the polyene main chain. Here, we demonstrate how the stimuli responsiveproperties of diastereomeric polymers, obtained by changing the absolute con-figuration of the second chiral center, are different due to the unlike propertiesof diastereoisomers PB Wiley SN 0899-0042 YR 2023 FD 2023 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/30762 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/30762 LA eng NO Rodríguez, R, Rivadulla-Cendal, E, Quiñoá, E, Freire, F.
