Paper on synthesis of optically active V-shaped molecules based on planar chiral [2.2]paracyclophanes was published in ChemistrySelect.  Two π-electron systems are stacked to form V-shaped structures at an angle of 120°. Chiroptical properties such as CPL behaviors can be controlled by orientation of the stacked π-electron systems.
