Cover Story: The dynamic and static natures of the π···π interactions in helicenes and the dimers are elucidated with the QTAIM dual functional analysis. The interactions are predicted to mainly have a vdW nature, closely related to the motions of the internal vibrations. The dynamic nature of C-∗-C (∗:bond critical points) in the cape area appears to be very different from that in the bay area. The results  hint at designs for helicene-containing materials with high functionality, which will be developed on a cosmic scale, as if a new rocket takes off toward space. View this paper
