Asymmetric catalysis is a major theme of research in contemporary synthetic organic
chemistry. The discovery of general strategies for highly enantioselective photochemical …

The design of artificial catalysts able to compete with the catalytic proficiency of enzymes is
an intense subject of research. Non-covalent interactions are thought to be involved in …

A photo-responsive supramolecular assembly was successfully constructed through the
stoichiometric 2: 1 non-covalent association of two 4-(anthracen-2-yl) pyridine-2, 6 …

Supramolecular photochirogenesis is a rapidly growing interdisciplinary area of science at
the boundary of photochemistry, asymmetric synthesis and supramolecular chemistry. The …

Photosensitizers generally show great tendency for self-aggregation in aqueous media,
leading to quenched fluorescence and lower photosensitizing ability. Herein, we report that …

Chiral slipped 5, 8: 9′, 10′-cyclodimers were preferentially produced over classical 9, 10:
9′, 10′-cyclodimers upon supramolecular photocyclodimerization of 2 …

The short lifetime and high reactivity of the molecular excited states were the main culprits
for the low achieved enantioselectivity of the excited-state photoreactions. Supramolecular …

Photochemical methods are increasingly being used in organic synthesis. They are
especially useful for preparing many compounds that are not readily accessible through …
