Abstract
meta-Ethynylpyridine polymers, which are consisted of 4-functionalized pyridine rings bridged by acetylene bonds at 2,6-positions, associate with saccharides by multiple hydrogen bondings to form CD-active helical complexes as Fig 1. The polymers could be endowed with various properties by appropriate choice of functional groups at 4-positions. Poly(ethylene glycol) groups made the polymer soluble into both polar and apolar solvents and show saccharide recognition even in mixtures of MeOH/water. Dialkylamino group brought much higher basicity and could be quantitatively regulated the structure and saccharide recognition of the polymer by the addition of trifluoroacetic acid.
