The comparison of the self-assembly 9,9'-bisheptahelicene on the Au(111) surface, studied with scanning tunneling microscopy, with the self-assembly of the same species obtained by on-surface synthesis via Ullmann coupling from 9-bromoheptahelicene reveals a diastereomeric excess for the ( M, P)- meso-form of 50%. The stereoselectivity is explained by a topochemical effect, in which the surface-alignment of the starting material and the organometallic intermediate sterically favor the ( M, P)-transition state over the homochiral transition states.
通过扫描隧道显微镜研究了9,9'-双七螺旋烯在Au(111)表面的自组装,并将其与通过乌尔曼偶联从9-溴七螺旋烯进行表面合成得到的同一物种的自组装进行比较,结果表明( M, P)-内消旋体的非对映体过量为50%。这种立体选择性是由一种拓扑化学效应解释的,在该效应中,起始原料和有机金属中间体的表面排列在空间上有利于( M, P)-过渡态而非同手性过渡态。
