title: Molecular tectonics: from enantiomerically pure sugars to enantiomerically pure triple stranded helical coordination network.
abstract: The self-assembly between a bis-monodentate tecton based on two pyridine units connected to an enantiomerically pure isomannide stereoisomer and HgCl2 leads to the formation of an enantiomerically pure triple stranded helical infinite coordination network which was structurally characterised by X-ray diffraction on single crystal.
