Here an attempt has been made to address this issue through chiral anion exchange. A new class of cationic achiral C-3-symmetric gelator devoid of any conventional gelation assisting functional units is found to form both right-and left-handed helical structures. A chiral counteranion exchange-assisted approach is successfully introduced to control the chirality sign and thereby to obtain preferred homochiral assemblies. Formation of anion-assisted chiral assembly was confirmed by circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, microscopic images, and crystal structure. The X-ray crystal structure reveals the construction of helical assemblies with opposite handedness for (+)- and (-)-chiral anion reformed gelators. The appropriate counteranion driven ion-pair-assisted hydrogen-bonding interactions are found responsible for the helical bias control in this C-3-symmetric gelator.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">35</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">13.038</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gangopadhyay, Monalisa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maity, Arunava</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Dey, Ananta</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rajamohanan, P.

Crown ether-based host molecules with opposite chiral configurations (R-H, S-H) have been derived from 1,1'-bi-2-naphthol (BINOL) derivatives that have axially chiral biaryl centers. These chiral crown ethers form host-guest complexes (i.e., [2] pseudoro-taxanes) with chiral secondary ammonium ion derivatives (R-G, S-G). NMR spectroscopic studies show that the complexes are in a dynamic equilibrium in solution. Results of the H-1 NMR and fluorescence spectroscopic studies indicate a head-on orientation of the host and guest in the [2] pseudorotaxanes. The difference in the efficiency in the FRET-based responses between anthracene and the BINOL derivatives allow efficient chiral discrimination of the guests. Isothermal titration calorimetry and NMR investigations reveal that inclusion complexes between hosts and guests of the same chirality (R-H center dot R-G, S-H center dot S-G) are more stable relative to those of opposite chirality (R-H center dot S-G, S-H center dot R-G). However, FRET-based energy-transfer efficiency is higher for R-H center dot S-G and S-H center dot R-G complexes. NMR spectroscopic studies show that the relative orientation of the guest in the host cavity is significantly different when the host binds a guest of the same or opposite chirality; furthermore, the latter is more favorable for FRET, thus enabling discrimination between enantiomers. Interestingly, chiral discrimination of guest ions could also be achieved by using silica surfaces modified with chiral host molecules.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">72</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5.317</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kushwaha, Shilpi</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Maity, Arunava</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gangopadhyay, Monalisa</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ravindranathan, Sapna</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rajamohanan, Pattuparambil R.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Das, Amitava</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cucurbit[7]uril induced formation of fret-enabled unilamellar lipid vesicles</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Langmuir</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2017</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">OCT</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">33</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">10989-10999</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">A unique fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) process is found to be operational in a unilamellar lipid self-assembly in the aqueous phase. A newly synthesized naphthyl based long chain lipid derivative [N-(naphthalene-1-ylmethyl)tetradecane-1-ammonium chloride, 14NA(+)] forms various self-assembled architectures in the aqueous phase. Controlled changes in lipid concentration lead to a transition of the self-assemblies from micelles to vesicles to rods. In the presence of cucurbit[7]uril (CB7), 14NA(+) forms a host-guest [2]pseudorotaxane complex (CB7(sic)14NA(+)) and secondary interactions lead to the formation of a lipid bilayer with hydrophobic pockets situated in between the layers. The change in the structure of 14NA(+) assemblies, interaction with CB7 and formation of supramolecular assemblies of CB7(sic)14NA(+) were examined using light scattering, spectroscopic, and microscopic techniques. Entrapment of a luminescent dye, anthracene within the hydrophobic bilayer of the supramolecular assembly CB7(sic)14NA(+) favors a modified luminescent response due to an efficient FRET process. Further, the FRET process could be controlled by thermal and chemical stimuli that induce transformation of unilamellar vesicles.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">41</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.833</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
