Abstract
A 1:1 mixture of pseudoenantiomeric oxymethylene helicene (P)-pentamer and (M)-hexamer formed a hetero-double-helix, which self-assembled into one-dimensional fibril films at liquid–solid interfaces. Discontinuous heterogeneous nucleation occurred, which involved the formation of 50-nm-diameter particles and subsequent fibril growth from these particles. The fibril film was formed on the solid surface, and the molecules remained dissociated in solution. The fibril film formation was affected by seeding and the solid surface materials.
