title: Enantioselective recognition by a highly ordered porphyrin-assembly on a chiral molecular gel.
abstract: Enantioselective recognition of amino acids was achieved by using a highly ordered chiral assembly of achiral porphyrin on a chiral molecular gel. Exceptionally high enantioselectivity was observed for histidine derivatives by monitoring the CD patterns and fluorescence quenching, K(SV) (l): 26.3 × 10(3) M(-1); K(SV)(D)-enantiomer: 7.03 × 10(3) M(-1).
