text: Stereochemical information of a chiral monomer can be expressed in a supramolecular polymer.  Helical supramolecular polymer with P-and M-conformation are widely seen, especially those composed of disc-shaped monomers.  When the monomers are achiral, both P-and M-helices are formed in equal amounts.  When the monomers are chiral, typically due to the presence of one or more stereocenters in the side chains, the diastereomeric relationship between P- and M-helices leads to the preference of one conformation over the other.  Typical example is a C-symmetric disk-shaped chiral monomer that forms helical supramolecular polymers via the "majority rule".  A slight excess of one enantiomer of the chiral monomer resulted in a strong bias to either the right-handed or left-handed helical geometry at the supramolecular polymer level.  In this case, a characteristic nonlinear dependence of the anisotropic factor, g, on the enantiomeric excess of a chiral monomer can be generally observed.  Like in small molecule based chiral system, chirality of a supramolecular polymer also affected by chiral solvents. Some application such as a catalyst for asymmetric synthesis  and circular polarized luminescence are observed in chiral supramolecular polymers too.
