Description:
Macroscopic helical chirality and self-motion of hierarchical self-assemblies induced by enantiomeric small molecules Macroscopic helical chirality and self-motion of hierarchical self-assemblies induced by enantiomeric small molecules, Published online: 18 September 2018; doi:10.1038/s41467-018-06239-5 Chirality transfer by chemical self-assembly has been studied intensively for years but chirality transfers along the same path remains elusive. Here the authors use a multiscale chemo-mechanical model to elucidate the mechanism underlying the chirality transfer via self-assembly in hierarchical camphorsulfonic acid doped polyaniline.
