Popis: © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. In this contribution, we report the synthesis of chiral all-conjugated branched poly(phenylene ethynylenes) with a controlled amount of branching. Subsequently, the selfassembly of these PPEs is studied by means of UV-vis, fluorescence spectroscopy, and DSC and the influence of branching is investigated. Finally, CD-spectroscopy is used to study the influence of branching and self-assembly on the chiral expression of these polymers. ispartof: Journal of Polymer Science A, Polymer Chemistry vol:53 issue:1 pages:79-84 status: published
