Abstract: : Conjugated nanohoops have attracted much attention in recent years due to their unique optoelectronic properties.Amorecomplexgeometry, inwhichtwonanohoopsare covalentlylinkedtoformaso-calleddoublenanohoop,canhavea significant influenceon themorphology, (chir)optical properties andsupramolecular interactions comparedtoa singlenanohoop. Herein,wepresent thesystematicdesign, synthesis, structuraland chiroptical analysis of a novel series of three chiral double nanohoops togetherwiththeir singlehoopreferencecompounds. Theyeach incorporatea tetrahydroindeno[2,1-a]indene-5,10-diol unit asanasymmetricbridgewithcentral chirality.Notably, they displayhighphotoluminescencequantumyieldsof79−95%,alongwithdistincttrendsinabsorption,emission,andenergytransfer dynamics.EnantiomersofthedoubleandreferencesinglenanohoopsweresuccessfullyseparatedbyHPLCusingachiralstationary phase, and their chiroptical propertieswere investigated throughelectronic circular dichroism(ECD) andcircularlypolarized luminescence(CPL)spectroscopyrevealingincreasedasymmetryfactors(gabs)comparedtotheirreferencecompounds.Ourstudy provides a systematic explorationof howsize, geometry, andasymmetry impact theoptoelectronic behavior of chiral double nanohoopsandoffersvaluable insight for thedevelopmentofhigh-performancechiropticalmaterials.
