Chiral organic and organometallic luminophores that possess circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) properties in the near-ultraviolet to near-infrared region have several useful applications. However, the CPL properties are subject to inherent factors of the compounds; to date, studies on the CPL properties influenced by amino acids and peptides are scarce. Consequently, we developed peptide-pyrene organic luminophores exhibiting various CPL properties. It is conceivable that the peptide-pyrene organic luminophores can be obtained as aggregates when dissolved in a solution. It is also possible that the formation of aggregates makes it difficult to accurately examine the CPL of the peptide in the solution. This study showed that the introduction of sterically hindered 2-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) units into the peptide backbone inhibits aggregate formation. The resulting luminophores exhibit CPL properties owing to the presence of pyrene units. The results of this study can form a basis for the design of future materials that use peptide-pyrene organic luminophores.
