Outline of Final Research Achievements

We proposed a novel Chirality-assisted synthetic strategy for difficult heterometallic complex preparations and demonstrated this is an applicable useful strategy for various elements in this research. Furthermore, new stimuli-responsive polarization switch crystals based on the intramolecular electron transfer were successfully developed. Our strategy proposed here based on a general tendency of chiral molecules which prefer forming symmetric molecular structures and crystallize in racemates. Thus it has a wide coverage, and it is in particular important result that we demonstrated an effective strategy for study of molecular functional materials.
