title: Resolution of enantiomers in solution and determination of the chirality of extended metal atom chains.
abstract: The resolution of enantiomers of extended metal atom chains of the type Ni3[(C5H5N)2N]4Cl2 has been accomplished by chromatographic methods in solution, and the chirality was determined using vibrational circular dichroism, electronic circular dichroism, optical rotatory dispersion, and density functional theory calculations.
