Abstract

Three aryl hydrazide foldamer polymers, which bear different numbers of chiral pentaethylene glycol chains, have been synthesized. Circular dichroism and UV-vis studies reveal that two of them can be driven by hydrophobicity to form helical hollow conformation in water that exhibit strong twist sense bias.
