Light-Driven Supramolecular Chirality in Propeller-Like Hydrogen-Bonded Complexes That Show Columnar Mesomorphism

Shine a light! Columnar mesomorphic assembles of propeller‐like hydrogen‐bonded complexes show a chiral photoresponse upon irradiation with circularly polarized light (CPL) of a given handedness (see picture). The materials can behave as a supramolecular switch that undergoes helix inversion when ir...

Zusammenfassung:	Shine a light! Columnar mesomorphic assembles of propeller‐like hydrogen‐bonded complexes show a chiral photoresponse upon irradiation with circularly polarized light (CPL) of a given handedness (see picture). The materials can behave as a supramolecular switch that undergoes helix inversion when irradiated with the oppositely polarized light.
