Description

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>The potential use of circularly polarized luminescence for object identification in a sensor application is demonstrated. New luminescence probes using pyrene derivatives as sensor luminophores were developed. (R,R)‐Im<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Py and (S,S)‐Im<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Py contain two chiral imidazole moieties at 1,6‐positions through ethynyl spacers (angle between spacers ca. 180°). The probe molecules spontaneously self‐assemble into chiral stacks (P or M helicity) upon coordination to metal ions with tetrahedral coordination (Zn<jats:sup>2+</jats:sup>). The chiral probes display neither circular dichroism (CD) nor circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) without metal ions. However, (R,R)‐Im<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Py and (S,S)‐Im<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Py exhibit intense chiroptical activity (CD and CPL) upon self‐assembly with Zn<jats:sup>2+</jats:sup> ions. (R,R)‐Im<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Py and (S,S)‐Im<jats:sub>2</jats:sub>Py with chemical stimuli‐responsibility allow sensing using the CPL signal as detection output, enabling us to discriminate between a signal from the target analyte and that from non‐target species.</jats:p>
