The complementary chiral/achiral strands form an excess‐handed double‐helical structure as supported by intense split‐type Cotton effects in the absorption regions of the conjugated backbones biased by the chiral amidinium–carboxylate salt bridges. The double‐helical trimer was found to catalyze the direct aldol reaction of cyclohexanone with 4‐nitrobenzaldehyde and produce the products with a moderate enantioselectivity despite the fact that the catalytically active bifunctional piperazine/carboxylic acid pair introduced in the middle is achiral, indicating the key role of the one‐handed double‐helical framework for supramolecular bifunctional organocatalysis., ファイル公開:2021-03-01}, pages = {254--264}, title = {Complementary double‐stranded helical oligomers bearing achiral bifunctional groups that catalyze asymmetric aldol reaction}, volume = {32}, year = {2020} }
