Abstract
Irregular rods with a minimum diameter of ca. 150 Angstrom and lengths of several tens of mu m were formed in methylcyclohexane from complem entary hydrogen-bond pairs of an alkylalante-derivatized melamine and a 'Janus' molecule; circular dichroism with exciton coupling was induc ed for the 'Janus' chromophore via hydrogen bonds, probably due to the structural regularity of the molecular assembly.
