Spontaneous symmetry breaking during interrupted crystallization of an axially chiral amino acid derivative.

چکیده
High net enantiomeric excess was observed for crystal collections obtained by crystallization of the TFA salt of a configurationally stable yet racemic axially chiral amidoamine in EtOH solution with or without stirring (up to >99% ee at < or = 15% crystallization).

The formation of a hydrated homochiral helix from an achiral zwitterionic salt, spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking and redox chromism of crystals.
A unique supramolecular helix assisted by water tetramers is obtained by static evaporation of aqueous solution of a zwitterionic salt, 1,1'-bis(4-carboxylatebenzyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium; spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking occurs in crystallization; interestingly, redox chromism behavior of crystals upon exposure to alcohol atmosphere has been observed.
متن کاملChiral symmetry breaking during crystallization: complete chiral purity induced by nonlinear autocatalysis and recycling.
We report experimental results that show a large and symmetric population of D and L crystals moving into complete chiral purity, with one of the enantiomers completely disappearing. The results indicate (i) a new symmetry breaking process incompatible with the hypothesis of an initial single chiral phase or "mother crystal," (ii) that total symmetry breaking and complete chiral purity can be a...
متن کاملExperimental evidence of chiral symmetry breaking in crystallization from primary nucleation
Chiral symmetry breaking in stirred crystallization of sodium chlorate (NaCI03) is believed to occur via nucleation of a single chiral "mother crystal" that produces a new generation of crystals which inherit its chirality. We here report results of stirred crystallizations resulting in massive "instantaneous" primary nucleation and total symmetry breaking. The results of these experiments sugg...
متن کاملTHE FRANK KINETIC MODEL FOR SPONTANEOUS CHIRAL SYMMETRY BREAKING WITH VARIABLE CONCENTRATION OF THE ACHIRAL SUBSTRATE
This paper considers the possibility of spontaneous transition of aracemic mixture (composed of equal amounts of two enantiomeric species, say L and D) into a monochiral state (in which only one enantiomer, say L, is present). Transitions of this kind have been recently experimentally observed. A plausible approach to this phenomenon is a model put forward by Frank, based on simple laws of ...
متن کاملChiral symmetry breaking via crystallization of the glycine and α-amino acid system: a mathematical model.
We introduce and numerically solve a mathematical model of the experimentally established mechanisms responsible for the symmetry breaking transition observed in the chiral crystallization experiments reported by I. Weissbuch, L. Addadi, L. Leiserowitz and M. Lahav, J. Am. Chem. Soc., 1988, 110, 561-567. The mathematical model is based on five basic processes: (1) the formation of achiral glyci...
