One-dimensional (1D) coordination polymers (CPs) experiences limitations in exfoliation into individual strands, which hamper their utility as functional 1D nanomaterials. Here we synthesize chiral 1D-CPs that feature the bis(dipyrrinato)zinc(II) complex motif. They can be exfoliated into single strands upon sonication in organic media, retaining lengths of up to 3.19 μm (ca. 2600 monomer units). Their chiroptical structure allows the exfoliated wires to show circularly polarized luminescence at an intensity 5.9 times that of reference monomer complexes.
