自组装和自组织树枝状分子、树枝状大分子和树枝状聚合物产生手性超分子结构,已被开发为生物模拟物。在这里,我们回顾了我们在同手性、异手性和外消旋树枝状二肽自组装方面的工作,并解决了生物系统中最基本的问题之一:为什么生物系统是同手性的,而不是异手性或外消旋的?如果它们是异手性或外消旋的,与当代的同手性生物系统相比,它们的外观和功能会如何?
Self-assembling and self-organizable dendrons, dendrimers, and dendronized polymers produce chiral supramolecular architectures that have been developed as biological mimics. Here we review our work on the self-assembly of homochiral, heterochiral, and racemic dendritic dipeptides, and address one of the most fundamental questions of biological systems: Why are biological systems homochiral and not heterochiral or racemic and, if they were heterochiral or racemic, how would they look and function by comparison with contemporary homochiral biological systems?
