Abstract

The monolayer behavior of a chiral gelator with perfluoroalkyl chains, (1R,2R)- or (1S,2S)- N,N’-diperfluoroheptanoyl 1,2-diaminocyclohexane (denoted as RR- or SS-CF7, respectively), was investigated by means of the Langmuir-Blodgett method. The AFM image of an enantiomeric film deposited onto a hydrophilic glass plate exhibited an array of rod-like aggregates with 0.05-0.8 μm in diameter, suggesting that they were a two-dimensional analogue of fibrils in a gel.
