Publicación del artículo "Single-Stranded Molecular Helical Assembly from a Self-Complementary Squaramide Compound"

El Dr. Rafel Prohens y Anna Portell, técnicos de la Tecnología de Polimorfismo y Calorimetría, han publicado “Single-Stranded Molecular Helical Assembly from a Self-Complementary Squaramide Compound” en la revista Crystal Growth & Design, la cual pertenece a la American Chemical Society y es la revista de Enginyeria Cristal.lina con mayor índice de impacto (4,689).

El resumen del artículo es el siguiente:

"A new helical crystal structure of a disquaramide compound has been solved by means of direct methods from powder X-ray diffraction data. It contains a racemic mixture of alternating clock/anticlock wise rotating helices which are formed through an unprecedented combination of strong squaramide−squaramide and amine−phenol interactions, both in a head-to-tail fashion."
