Abstract

Rigid rod polyisocyanopeptides bearing phthalocyanines as pendant groups have been synthesised through CuAAC of polyisocyanopeptides containing acetylene groups with zinc(II) phthalocyanine azide. As confirmed by UV/Vis, fluorescence, and circular dichroism spectroscopies, the phthalocyanines are arranged in a helical fashion along the polymer backbone, forming the longest reported well-defined phthalocyanine assembly described to date.
