Metal-induced supramolecular chirality inversion of small self-assembled molecules in solution

Abstract

A non-covalent self-assembled chiral alanyl aminopyridine ligand exhibits supramolecular chirality in solution, independent of the organic solvent used. The supramolecular chirality of the assemblies is completely inverted by complexation to zinc ions. To date, such a supramolecular metal–ligand system has not been reported in the literature.
