Enantiomeric Nanostructures: Chiral Nanostructures from Helical Copolymer-Metal Complexes: Tunable Cation-π Interactions and Sergeants and Soldiers Effect (Small 2/2016)

Abstract

Macroscopically chiral nanospheres and nanotubes composed of helical copolymers are described on page 238 by F. Freire, R. Riguera, and co-workers. The presence of a donor co-solvent either activates or deactivates cation–π supramolecular interactions on the chiral monomers of the copolymer, generating either P or M helical senses in the nanostructure through the ‘Sergeants and Soldiers’ effect.
