22. Kakuchi et al. have reported that the CD spectra of copolymers that had an initial predominant one-handed helical sense were inverted in the presence of metal cations. However, neither selectivity related to the valence of the cations (the polymers did not behave as valence sensors) nor amplification of chirality mechanisms and the helical senses of the copolymers (AFM images) were reported.

35. To our knowledge, this is the first time that images of both helical senses are reported for polyphenylacetylenes bearing short pendants. Usually, long alkyl chains are needed as pendants to favor the interaction with the HOPG surface. See reference [4a] and, S. Sakurai, K. Okoshi, J. Kumaki, E. Yashima, Angew. Chem. 2006, 118, 1267-1270

37. We recently reported a less dynamic polymer bearing another kind of pendant with a different connection to the phenylacetylene, where the addition of certain metal cations produced helix inversion from a previous predominant helical sense, but neither selectivity associated with the valence of the metals nor amplification of chirality were observed. Thus, that material did not behave as valence sensor. See, I. Louzao, J. M. Seco, E. Quiñoá, R. Riguera, Angew. Chem. 2010, 122, 1472-1475
