Supramolecular chiral transcription and recognition by mesoporous silica prepared by chiral imprinting of a helical micelle.

Let's twist again: The chirality of a helical propeller-like micelle has been memorized by functional groups on the mesopore surface of chiral mesoporous silicas. Such imprinted supramolecular chirality can be transcripted to poly(propiolic acid) sodium salt and tetraphenylporphine tetrasulfonic acid (see picture), and recognized by B-DNA.

The hydrogen-bonding structure in parallel-stranded duplex DNA is reverse Watson-Crick.

Raman spectra of the parallel-stranded duplex formed from the deoxyoligonucleotides 5'-d-[(A)10TAATTTTAAATATTT]-3' (D1) and 5'-d[(T)10ATTAAAATTTATAAA]-3' (D2) in H2O and D2O have been acquired. The spectra of the parallel-stranded DNA are then compared to the spectra of the antiparallel double helix formed from the deoxyoligonucleotides D1 and 5'-d(AAATATTTAAAATTA-(T)10]-3' (D3). The Raman spec...

Diamondoids and DNA Nanotechnologies

Diamondoids are cage-like saturated hydrocarbons consisting of fused cyclohexane rings. The Diamondoids family of compounds is one of the best candidates for molecular building blocks (MBBs) in nanotechnology to construct organic nanostructures compared to other MBBs known so far. The challenge is to find a route for self-assembly of these cage hydrocarbons and their applications in the bottom-...

Chiral nematic mesoporous carbon derived from nanocrystalline cellulose.

Template synthesis based on the self-assembly of lyotropic liquid crystals offers access to mesoporous solids with high specific surface areas and periodic structures. Incorporating mesopores (i.e., pores ranging from 2 to 50 nm in diameter) into carbonaceous materials may be advantageous for certain applications, including the adsorption of large molecules, electrochemical double-layer capacit...

Growth of Optically Active Chiral Inorganic Films through DNA Self-Assembly and Silica Mineralisation

The circularly polarized reflection of nature is due to their distinct azimuthally twisted or helical character in the nanostructure of the surface films. Although many chiral inorganic powders have been successfully synthesised, the artificial synthesis of chiral inorganic films is rare. Herein, we reported a facile synthetic route for the growth of monolayered chiral film on the quaternary am...
