by Caz+,and Sakurai and Kawamura studied the growth mechanism of myelin figures. These results are in sharp contrast with ours in that helices are formed only in the chain-melting phase (above TJ and do not exhibit enantiomorphism. Recently. however, Weis et a1.I0 reported twedimensional chiral crystals of phospholipid at the air/water interface. I n the case of non-bilayer-forming amphiphiles. helix formation has already been reported from 12-hydroxystearic acid, both in organic gel and from a collapsed m ~ n o l a y e r . ’ ~ - ’ ~ In conclusion, helical superstructures are formed from synthetic. chiral bilayer membranes. The physical state and the chemical structure are crucial for generation and transformation of these helices. It is now possible to prepare helical superstructures from designed component amphiphiles. Electron microscopic studies of these and related systems are published elsewhere.s,16 Acknowledgment.

Magnification 1300 times (scale bars, 10 ,”. Enantiomeric ~C,,-D-GIU-C, , N t produces similar helical structures. The sense of the helix of the L amphiphile is always right handed, and that of the D amphiphile is left handed. They do not change, even when the helix is bent. Helices are not found for aqueous dispersions of racemic 2CI,-o~-Glu-C,,N+;instead, elastic fibers are present. The helical superstructures are stable only a t temperatures below the phase transition temperature (T,)of the respective The helices bilayers (T, = 34 ‘C for helical 2ClZ-~-GIu-C,,NC).S of Figure 1 change instantaneously to spherical vesicles and flexible filaments, when the solution is warmed to 40-50 OC. The conversion processes can be seen more clearly by slower heating. At temperatures near T,, the pitch of a long helix of 2CI2-~-GluC,,N+ becomes shorter (from 3.2 to 2.8 fim) from one end (Figure 3a, I). The helices are then transformed into tubes (Figure 3a, II), which are immediately constricted and separated into vesicles. Figure 3, parts a and b a r e photographed within an interval of I s, and the rapid constriction process is apparent from comparisons of II with II’, 111 with Ill’, and IV with IV’. Some flexible filaments remain intact. All helices are eventually transformed into vesicles or flexible filaments. The chemical structure of component amphiphiles in addition to their chirality plays crucial roles in morphology. 2C,,-rGlu-C, IN+ gives helical aggregates, whereas 2C,,-r-Glu-C2N+ and 2C,,-r-Glu-C2N+ form spherical vesicles (diameter, several micrometers) at all temperatures. Long spacer methylenes (C,) are required for helix formation. It is known that biological lipids (lecithins) form helical myelin figures?+ Lin et al. reported the induction of helical liposomes Another possible mechanism far this transformation is the double-helix formation.

The lowest lying electronic excited state of complexes containing quadruple metal-metal bonds is a spin triplet of configuration [a*lr466*].Although the energy of this state has yet to be directly determined by magnetic or spectroscopic measurements, simple theoretical considerations of weakly interacting orbitals.’-3 as well as indirect experimental evidence,’;J suggest that it lies much closer to the (6’) ground state than to its singlet (66‘) counterpart. Ab initio generalized valence bond calculations on Re2C12- have borne this out, placing the ’(W) state of this complex 3200 cm-’ above the ground state and I I200 cm-l below ‘(66’)> Over the past several years, a number of d4-d4 dimers have been reported in

While the rotationally symmetric [ u2r4]triple-bond core remains intact in these twisted systems, the extent of &interaction between adjacent d, functions is progressively reduced, relative to that found in eclipsed dimers, as the torsional angle increases, with no overlap remaining at 45O.' Herein we report the magnetic and spectroscopic properties of two d4-d4complexes that nearly span the range of &interactions: P - M ~ ~ C l ~ ( d m(dmpe p e ) ~ = 1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane), with a twist angle of 40°, and Mo2Cl4(PMe,),, its eclipsed "rotamern.8-10 While Mo2C1,(PMeJ4 displays the rigorous diamagnetism (x, = -280 X emu/mol; crystalline sample, Faraday balance, 300 K) typical of eclipsed d4-d4 dimers of this type, P-Mo2C14( d m ~ e is) ~paramagnetic under the same conditions. The temperature dependence of the magnetic susceptibility of the latter complex (Figure 1) is consistent with an antiferromagnetically coupled two-spin system.
