Discrete self-assembly of dyes provides access to new material presenting novel optical properties. Herein we demonstrate the supramolecular chirality induction though the formation of discrete self-assembled structures using induced circular dichroism (ICD). Specific three-point hydrogen bonding dyads based on diaminopyridine (DAP) -flavin were employed. Structural effect on chirality induction will be discussed in this presentation.
