Description
Summary:The combination of physical properties sensitive to molecular chirality in a single system allows the observation of fascinating phenomena such as magneto‐chiral dichroism (MChD) and circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) having potential applications for optical data readout and display technology. Homochiral monodimensional coordination polymers of YbIII were designed from a 2,15‐bis‐ethynyl‐hexahelicenic scaffold decorated with two terminal 4‐pyridyl units. Thanks to the coordination of the chiral organic chromophore to Yb(hfac)3 units (hfac−=1,1,1,5,5,5‐hexafluoroacetylaconate), efficient NIR‐CPL activity is observed. Moreover, the specific crystal field around the YbIII induces a strong magnetic anisotropy which leads to a single‐molecule magnet (SMM) behaviour and a remarkable room temperature MChD. The MChD‐structural correlation is supported by computational investigations. Enantiopure 1D YbIII coordination polymers involving helicene‐based ligands were designed. Their physical investigations revealed an unprecedented combination of field‐induced Single‐Molecule Magnet behavior, Near‐Infrared Circularly Polarized Luminescence and room temperature Magneto‐Chiral Dichroism (MChD). The magnetic anisotropy was determined as the preponderant criterion for the observation of a strong MChD.
