Near…far…wherever you are! Two chiral residues at the N‐terminus of a helical foldamer are sufficient to induce a significant helical screw‐sense preference. The capacity of this helix to transmit stereochemical information is exemplified by highly stereoselective transformations conducted over nanometer distances.
