Abstract:For the development of nature-inspired chiral nanostructures, controlling the chirality communication along the assembling pathways in aqueous media is a crucial task. Herein, we designed and synthesized pyrazine-based derivative Pyra-Met with an L-methionine group as a chiral handle. Due to the presence of flexible side chains in the Pyra-Met building block, its interactions with the solvent molecules in the assembled state are restricted, which leads to the generation of nanospheres in aqueous media. The Pyr… Show more
