Abstract
different mechanisms, the one-pot copolymerization follows a living polymerization manner, giving the desired optically active block copolymers with controllable molar mass and low distribution. The block copolymerization induced chiral self-assembly simultaneously due to the one-handed helicity of the poly(acyl methane) block, giving spherical nanoparticles, one-handed helices, and chiral micelles with controlled dimensions regarding the composition of the generated copolymers. Interestingly, the chiral assemblies exhibit clear circularly polarized luminescence with tunable handedness and a high dissymmetric factor.
