Abstract
A good memory for macromolecular helicity is displayed by the one‐handed helical sodium salt of poly(4‐carboxyphenyl isocyanide) after the complete removal of the optically active amines that induced the helicity. This memory persists even with further modification to the side groups of the amide residues, thus giving designer helical polyisocyanides with outstanding thermal stability in solution, some of which also exhibit liquid crystallinity. To find out more, turn to the Full Paper by E. Yashima et al. on page 755 ff.
