Supramolecular aggregates with macroscopic chirality by self-assembly of helical small molecules
In this work, we investigated the self-assembly of helical small molecules and found that the formed micrometer-sized supramolecular structures represented macroscopic chirality. Our observation will provide useful information for exploring the factors which are able to essentially control the chiral expression from molecular details to high-level chirality occurred in nature.
