High cis content (81-99%) cis-transoidal polyphenylacetylene (PPA) jacketed with amphiphilic self-assembling dendrons, poly[(3,4-3,5)mG2-4EBn] with m = 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, and (S)-3,7-dimethyloctyl, were synthesized by Rh(C≡CPh)(nbd)(PPh3)2

The synthesis and structural and retrostructural analysis of a library of dendronized cyclotriv- eratrylene containing seven nonchiral and sevenchiral self-assembling dendrons is reported. These dendronized cyclotri veratrylenes exhibit a crown conformation that we named dendritic crown.Selected examples of dendritic crowns self-assemble into helical pyrami dal columns that self-organize into columnar crystals or into 2-D columnar hexagonal lattices with intracolumnar order. A second group of dendritic crowns self-assembles into helical pyramidal columns and spherical supramolecular dendrimers that self- organize into cubic and tetragonal lattices. A third group of dendritic crowns self-assembles only in spherical supramolecular dendrimers. The helical pyramidal columns and spherical supramolecular dendrimers assembled from dendronized cyclotriveratrylene containing nonchiral dendrons are chiral but racemic while those generated from chiral dendrons exhibit amplified chirality. Structural analysis by a combination of X-ray diffraction methods and CD experiments demonstrated a new mechanism for the assembly of chiral supramolecular spheres that involves an intramolecular structure containing short fragments of helical pyramidal columns.
