“Picotubes” : A chiral tube is formed in the surprisingly clean Friedel–Crafts alkylation of a fully conjugated tubelike structure. Unlike helical carbon nanotubes synthesized at high temperatures, this chemically modified picotube is chiral by substitution. The two enantiomers were separated by chromatography on a chiral stationary phase.
