Figure 6
Schematic diagram of patterns hoa1 and hea1 found in (IV) and (V). The long and short arrowheads represent the 1-COOH and 2-OH functions, while color distinguishes the enantiomers. Mixed color refers to stereoisomerism around C4. (a) All-cis diastereomer (IV). The separate homochiral tapes (T) of the enantiomers are cross-linked across centers of inversion (hoa1). They alternately form R22(12) dimers and R44(12) tetramers. (b) Diastereomer (V). The tert-butyl groups on the opposite side are shown by a black cross versus a white arrow and vice versa. The heterochiral meanders (M) are cross-linked via homomolecular pairs around 21 screw axes (hea1), while the inversion centers generate the R44(12) tetramers as in (IV). (c) A shift of the upper row by ½ of the translation leads to a novel pattern (hea2) if the screw axes are replaced simultaneously by twofold rotations. Both R44(12) tetramers and R22(12) dimers are preserved.
