    Twist your tubes: The self‐assembly of small organic molecules is an entirely new approach to the synthesis of nanotubular structures possessing helical chirality. Amino acid derivatives of naphthalenediimide form such assemblies both in solution and in the solid state. The chirality of the nanotubes is determined by the constituent amino acid but is independent of the nature of the side chains.
