Abstract

A chiralcalix[4]arene bearing L-2,3-dibenzoyltartaric acid groups at the lower rim was synthesized and could enantioselectively self-assemble to result in a gel or suspension only with one enantiomer of chiralamines; as revealed by electron microscopy, the resultant gel was of nanofibers with a high aspect ratio but the suspension was composed of nanospheres.
