Racemic dimers as models of chiral macrocycles self-assembled on pyrolytic graphite

Fully aromatic helicenes are fascinating building blocks for the construction of inherently chiral macrocyclic nanocarbons. Such helicene-based non-planar macrocycles interact with each other and underlying substrate and form various 2D crystals. However, the role of their chirality remains unknown....
