• Do the twist: A helicenebisquinone (see formula), both enantiopure and racemic, forms hexagonal columnar phases in which the internal structures of the columns are 132 hollow helices comprising six‐molecule repeat units (see axial and side views). The enantiopure compound forms a true hexagonal structure; the racemate segregates enantiomers into right and left helical columns that are interlocked and longitudinally displaced for optimal packing.
