Self-assembly of tris(phenylisoxazolyl)benzene and its asymmetric induction of supramolecular chirality†
Abstract
Tris(phenylisoxazolyl)benzene stacks in a columnar fashion to form helical fibers that act as an organogelator, and the supramolecular chirality is asymmetrically induced in the presence of a tiny amount of a chiral source in solution.
