Multiple‐State Control over Supramolecular Chirality through Dynamic Chemistry Mediated Molecular Engineering.

Dynamic chemistry utilizing both covalent and noncovalent bonds provides valid protocols in manipulating properties of self‐assemblies and functions. Here we employ dynamic chemistry to realize multiple‐route control over supramolecular chirality up to five states. N‐protected fluorinated phenylalanine in the carboxylate state self‐assembled into achiral nanoparticles ascribed to the amphiphilicity. Protonation promoted one‐dimensional growth into helices with shrunk hydrophilicity, which in the presence of disulfide pyridine undergo chirality inversion promoted by the hydrogen bonding‐directed coassembly. Further interacting with the water‐soluble reductant cleavages the disulfide bond to initiate the rearrangement of coassemblies with a chirality inversion as well. Finally, by tuning the pH environments, aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction between reduced products and perfluorinated phenylalanine occurs, giving distinct chiral nanoarchitectures with emerged luminescence and circularly polarized luminescence. We thus realized a particular five‐state control by combining dynamic chemistry at one chiral compound, which greatly enriches the toolbox in fabricating responsive chiroptical materials.
