Intertwining triple helical nanofibers with an overall handedness have been formed from self-assembling chiral benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamides , and , whereas the achiral benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide upon self-association gives rise to straight nanofibers without any twist and transmission electron microscopy images of chiral compounds clearly demonstrate that the handedness of the triple helical nanofibers can be reversed by using the enantiomeric benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide building blocks.
具有整体旋光性的相互缠绕的三螺旋纳米纤维由自组装手性苯-1,3,5-三甲酰胺形成,而无手性的苯-1,3,5-三甲酰胺自缔合时会产生没有任何扭曲的直纳米纤维,并且手性化合物的透射电子显微镜图像清楚地表明,通过使用对映体苯-1,3,5-三甲酰胺结构单元,可以使三螺旋纳米纤维的旋光性反转。
