RT Journal Article T1 A Stimuli‐Responsive Macromolecular Gear: Interlocking Dynamic Helical Polymers with Foldamers A1 Rodríguez Riego, Rafael A1 Suárez Picado, Esteban A1 Quiñoá Cabana, Emilio A1 Riguera Vega, Ricardo A1 Freire Iribarne, Félix Manuel K1 Chirality K1 Chiral teleinduction K1 Foldamers K1 Helical polymers K1 Poly(phenylacetylene)s AB Herein, macromolecular gears composed of helical poly(phenylacetylenes) (PPAs) bearing short oligopeptides as pendant groups are described, in which the two structural motifs (framework and substituents) are combined. These gears are obtained by polymerization of the acetylene groups introduced at the C‐terminus of short oligopeptides formed by achiral (Aib)n units (n=1–3) derivatized at the N‐terminus by a single enantiomer (R or S) of α‐methoxy‐α‐trifluoromethylphenylacetic acid (MTPA, Mosher's reagent). The chiral information of the MTPA is transmitted to the achiral Aib fragments and, through either chiral tele‐induction and/or chiral harvesting mechanisms, is further transferred to the polyene backbones, which adopt preferentially P or M helical senses. Moreover, these materials also show dynamic behavior and respond to the action of external stimuli by either inverting the P/M sense and/or modifying the elongation in fully reversible processes PB Wiley SN 1433-7851 YR 2020 FD 2020 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10347/23380 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10347/23380 LA eng NO R.
