title: Non-centrosymmetric homochiral supramolecular polymers of tetrahedral subphthalocyanine molecules.
abstract: A combination of spectroscopy (UV/Vis absorption, emission, and circular dichroism), microscopy (AFM and TEM), and computational studies reveal the formation of non-centrosymmetric homochiral columnar subphthalocyanine assemblies. These assemblies form through a cooperative supramolecular polymerization process driven by hydrogen-bonding between amide groups, π-π stacking, and dipolar interactions between axial B-F bonds.
