Fig. 4. Enantioselective polymerization of 10,12-tricosadiynoic acid (TDA) using the spiral full-color emission generator (SFEG).

Fig. 4

a Schematic drawing of the enantioselective polymerization of TDA induced by circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) from the SFEG (peak at 500 nm, |glum | = 0.6) assisted by shortwave UV (UV lamp: 254 nm, 16 W; the sample-light distance: 15 cm). b Two different illuminant conditions: left- (blue) and right-handed (green) CPL. Absorbance (c) and circular dichroism spectra (d) of the chiral poly 10,12-tricosadiynoic acid (PTDA) induced by left- (solid curve) and right-handed (dashed curve) CPL.
