In nature, oligomers and polymers fold to generate intricate three-dimensional structures, yielding macromolecules with diverse functions including transport, catalysis, signal-recognition, and charge- and energy-transfer. Over the years, a wide variety of abiotic foldamers have been developed, ranging from non-natural peptides to aromatics. The ortho-phenylenes represent a recent addition to the family of aromatic foldamers. Systematic […]
