The past decade has witnessed remarkable success in the synthesis of curved polycyclic
aromatics through Scholl reactions which enable oxidative aryl–aryl coupling even in …

The research in circularly polarized luminescence has attracted wide interest in recent
years. Efforts on one side are directed toward the development of chiral materials with both …

As cut-outs from a graphene sheet, nanographenes (NGs) and graphene nanoribbons
(GNRs) are ideal cases with which to connect the world of molecules with that of bulk carbon …

The development of helicene molecules with significant chiroptical responses covering a
broad range of the visible spectrum is highly desirable for chiral optoelectronic applications; …

Conspectus Chiral functional materials with circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) have
risen rapidly in recent years because of their fascinating characteristics and potential …

Chiral materials have been widely present in people's lives, and their in-depth application
research is underway. Generally, the circularly polarized light obtained from nonpolarized …

Two [n] heliceno-bis (naphthalimides) 1 and 2 (n= 5 and 6, respectively) where two electron-
accepting naphthalimide moieties are attached at both ends of helicene core were …

π-Extended helicenes constitute an important class of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons with
intrinsic chirality. Herein, we report the syntheses of π-extended [7] helicene 4 and π …

Oxidative aromatic coupling occupies a fundamental place in the modern chemistry of
aromatic compounds. It is a method of choice for the assembly of large and bewildering …

Helicenes are an interesting scaffold for chiroptical properties and in particular circularly
polarized luminescence (CPL). In this short review, we collect the luminescence (glum) and …
