Twisted Metal—Amino Acid Nanobelts: Chirality Transcription from Molecules to Frameworks.

We have studied the self–assembly process of a typical biocoordination polymer, Ag(l)/cysteine (Cys), with different chiralities of the amino acid. Self–assembly of Ag(l)/L–Cys leads to production of pure right–handed helical nanobelts, whereas Ag(l)/D–Cys gives rise to the "mirror image", i.e., pur...
