Spontaneous asymmetric crystallization of a quartz-type framework from achiral precursors.
An enantioenriched three-dimensional quartz-type framework {[Ni(1.5)(tzdc)(H(2)O)(3)]·3H(2)O}(n) (H(3)tzdc = 4H-1,2,4-triazole-3,5-dicarboxylic acid) possessing chiral channels is obtained through spontaneous asymmetric crystallization without any enantiopure additive.
