A self-associating ADADA hydrogen-bonded double helix.
We report the design, synthesis, and characterization of an oligomer which incorporates a non-coplanar ADADA (hydrogen bond donor/acceptor) array within its structure. The molecule associates through self-complementary hydrogen bonding to form a dimeric double-helical complex.
