Enantiomorphous control in chiral crystallization of achiral molecules by pseudo-seeding
Several helical-type co-crystals of tryptamine and achiral carboxylic acids having similar crystal structures were found to play the role of pseudo-seed crystals in chiral crystallizations from solutions of tryptamine and different carboxylic acids.
