Research Abstract |
We have designed and synthesized a polymer having the structural chirality induced by the side-chain ordering. The contact angle measurements using chiral liquids as a probe revealed that the polymer film has the enantioselective surface properties. The enantioselectivity was associated with a surface organization via the local conformational change of the polymer chains. Also, we have successfully fabricated a polymer film, which enables us to determine the enantiomeric purity of the liquids by observing the change in the fluorescence emission.
