✦ Synopsis


Chiral supermolecules may be obtained from suitable achiral molecular constituents associated through a dissymmetrizing interaction mode. This is the case for the supermolecules I-IV formed by hydrogen-bonding association between the achiral complementary components la, b and Za,b,c. The crystal structures of the supermolecular pairs 1-111 and of the homochiral aggregate of two ternary supermolecules IV have been determined. The structural data are discussed.

Recognition processes occuring at the molecular level may lead to changes at the level of the material, thus expressing molecular information on the macroscopic scale. This is the case namely when the formation of a complementary supramolecular pair E 3 induces the appearance of a liquid crystalline

Compounds 1 and 2 were prepared according to the published method. [15] The STM images were acquired in the variable current mode (constant height) under ambient conditions with the tip immersed in the liquid. For details see ref. [9].
