Enantiomerically pure chiral {Fe28} wheels.
Wheels of steel: Two enantiomerically pure chiral {Fe(28)} wheel-like aggregates have been synthesized from the acetate buffer solution containing ferric ions and chiral tartrate ligands (see picture). These compounds are the largest chiral ferric aggregates isolated to date.
