Projections of the stacks of 2,3-tetralindiol molecules in (blue) the fully ordered compound of cis and R,R molecules, and (red) the enantiomerically pure trans compound (S,S enantiomers). The molecules on the left are molecule B (cis isomer) of the compound and molecule B of the pure S,S enantiomer. (a) Projection down the stack. The view direction is b for the compound and c for the pure enantiomer. (b) Projections related to those in part (a) by a 90° rotation around the horizontal. The choice of enantiomer has little effect on the drawings. |
