Abstract
The interplay of two subsequent aggregation processes results in a symmetry-breaking phenomenon in an achiral self-assembling system. Partially fluorinated benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxamide molecules self-assemble into a racemic mixture of one-dimensional P- and M-helical aggregates, followed by bundling into optically active higher-order aggregates or fibers (see picture).
