Can the property of molecular shape be used to advantage as a predictive tool for molecular assembly? While other contributors to self-assembly have been used with regularity, molecular topology's role in organizing supramolecular arrays has experienced limited attention…
Can the property of molecular shape be used to advantage as a predictive tool for molecular assembly? While other contributors to self-assembly have been used with regularity, molecular topology's role in organizing supramolecular arrays has experienced limited attention…
Molecular organization in a crystal lattice often reveals material function with applications ranging from polymer science to complex physiological studies. The ability to predict supramolecular assembly remains a crucial unanswered question in the structural sciences…
Quasiracemic materials, constructed from pairs of near enantiomers, show promise in the detection, separation, and synthesis of chiral compounds. The extant database of quasiracemic crystal structures shows these materials mimic the inversion symmetry found in the racemic counterparts…
This research focuses on quasiracemic crystal formations derived from benzoyl phenylalanine frameworks that incorporate a family of substituents (e.g., F, CH3, Cl, Br, NO2, I, CF3, _i_-Pr, _t_-Bu) that differ by size and shape…
Molecular shape, as it relates to the formation of crystalline materials, is of interest to fields that require exquisite control of the fundamental components, such as material and pharmaceutical sciences…
