Self-selecting homochiral quadruple-stranded helicates and control of supramolecular chirality.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Enantiomeric M4L4 helical cages have been prepared whose supramolecular chirality is induced by the chemical chirality of the self-sorting amino acid-derived ligands that are used. Using scrambled diastereomeric ligands or achiral glycine-derived ligands yields analogous complexes yet 'turns off' the supramolecular chirality by producing centrosymmetric cages.

Orbital specific chirality and homochiral self-assembly of achiral molecules induced by charge transfer and spontaneous symmetry breaking.
We study the electronic mechanisms underlying the induction and propagation of chirality in achiral molecules deposited on surfaces. Combined scanning tunneling microscopy and ab initio electronic structure calculations of Cu-phthalocyanines adsorbed on Ag(100) reveal the formation of chiral molecular orbitals in structurally undistorted molecules. This effect shows that chirality can be manife...
متن کاملPalladium(II) driven self-assembly of a saturated quadruple-stranded metallo helicate.
Complexation of the bridging bidentate ligand N,N'-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)dinicotinamide, L with palladium(II) resulted in a single discrete M(2)L(4) self-assembly, 1, in a quantitative manner. The entropically-controlled assembly of 1 resulted in a rare saturated, quadruple-stranded metallo-helicate, in which both the left-handed (M) and right-handed (P) helicates exist in the crystal structure.
متن کاملSelf-assembling of nanoscopic molecular rectangles, extended helicates and porous-like materials based on macrocyclic dicopper building blocks under fine supramolecular control.
Upon reaction with a dicarboxylate linker, macrocyclic dicopper complexes encode for a selective supramolecular 2 + 2 self-assembly of nanoscopic rectangles, a new class of molecular helicates, and porous-like materials via fine structural control at three supramolecular levels.
متن کاملA simple thermodynamic model for quantitatively addressing cooperativity in multicomponent self-assembly processes--Part 2: Extension to multimetallic helicates possessing different binding sites.
The extended site-binding model, which explicitly separates intramolecular interactions (i.e., intermetallic and interligand) from the successive binding of metal ions to polytopic receptors, is used for unravelling the self-assembly of trimetallic double-stranded Cu(I) and triple-stranded Eu(III) helicates. A thorough analysis of the available stability constants systematically shows that nega...
متن کاملHelicates and Related Metallosupramolecular Assemblies: Toward Structurally Controlled and Functional Devices
According to the first use of the word ‘helicate’ in 1987 [1] and its accepted definition [2]: a helicate is a discrete helical supramolecular complex constituted by one or more covalent organic strands wrapped about and coordinated to a series of ions defining the helical axis. The ligand strands are made of several domains corresponding to binding units coordinated to the central ions (in gen...
