Abstract
A chiral π-conjugated oligomer having alternate bipyridine and carbazole moieties connected through acetylinic bonds undergoes helical folding in chloroform–acetonitrile (40/60, v/v) as evident by fluorescence and circular dichroism changes. In the presence of transition metal cations such as Zn2+ defolding of the helical conformation occurs. Upon decomplexation of the cation with EDTA, the helical conformation is regained.
