Abstract
Planar chiral dioxacyclophanes were designed and synthesized as a key scaffold for materials with circularly polarized luminescence (CPL). Representative planar chiral 1,12-dioxa[12](1,4)naphthaleneophane-derived organosilane compounds (−)-(R)-1, (+)-(R)-2, and (−)-(R)-3 were prepared by (+)-sparteine-mediated aryl metalation and an electrophilic reaction with chlorosilanes. The absolute configurations of the planar chirality were determined in the R form by single-crystal X-ray analysis. Optically active compound (+)-(R)-2 exhibited blue fluorescence and a CPL signal with a dissymmetry factor (g lum value) of 0.001 in solution. The electronic structure was corroborated by DFT and TD-DFT calculations rationalizing the observed spectroscopic properties.
