Chiral Recognition in Bis-Urea-Based Aggregates and Organogels through Cooperative Interactions

: Chiral recognition in organogels occurs in the coassembly of the chiral gelator 1 with the chiral guest molecule 2. The diastereomeric aggregates formed from (R,R)-2 with (R,R)-1 or (S,S)-1 were found to be truly different in structure and strength. Cooperativity makes a major contribution to the chiral recognition in this system.
