Evaporation rate-based selection of supramolecular chirality

Chem Commun (Camb). 2017 Mar 9;53(21):3066-3069. doi: 10.1039/c6cc09842h.

Abstract

We demonstrate the evaporation rate-based selection of supramolecular chirality for the first time. P-type aggregates prepared by fast evaporation, and M-type aggregates prepared by slow evaporation are kinetic and thermodynamic products under dynamic reaction conditions, respectively. These findings provide a novel solution reaction chemistry under the dynamic reaction conditions.
