Abstract

Abstract A novel π-conjugated organoboron polymer with a chiral side chain was prepared by way of hydroboration polymerization between an optically active diyne monomer and triisopropylphenylborane. The achiral analog of this organoboron polymer was also prepared as reference material. Optical properties and optical activity were investigated by UV-vis absorption, fluorescence emission, and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. Concentration dependence and the influence of solvent effects upon chiroptical activity are described.
