Abstract
Fabricating chiral inorganic materials and revealing their unique quantum confinement-determined optical chiral responses are crucial tasks in the multidisciplinary fields of chemistry, physics, and biology. The field of chiral mesostructured inorganic materials started from the synthesis of individual nanocrystals and evolved to include their assembly from metals, semiconductors, ceramics, and inorganic salts endowed with various chiral structures ranging from atomic to micron scales. This tutorial review highlights the recent research on chiral mesostructured inorganic materials, especially the novel expression of mesostructured chirality and endowed optical chiral response, and it may inspire us with new strategies for the design of chiral inorganic materials and new opportunities beyond the traditional applications of chirality. Fabrication methods for chiral mesostructured inorganic materials are classified according to chirality type, scale, and symmetry-breaking mechanism. Special attention is given to highlight systems with original discoveries, exceptional phenomena, or unique mechanisms of optical chiral response for left- and right-handedness.

Abstract
In this review, we aim to present new concepts for the revisited separation of enantiomers from racemic compounds and a protocol worth to be followed in designing the preparation of pure enantiomers. We have taken into account not only the influence of the properties (eutectic composition) and characteristics of the reactants (racemic compound, resolving agent), but also the behavior of the resulting diastereomers and the different conditions (e.g., crystallization time, solvents used, solvate-forming compounds, achiral additives, etc.). The examples discussed are resolutions developed by our research team, through which we will try to illustrate the impact of all these considerations, presenting the methodological investigations interpreting recent discoveries and observations. Some special solid-state analytical and structural investigations assisting us in the elucidation and invention design of the resolution processes of some active pharmaceutical ingredients, such as Tetramisole, tofisopam, and Amlodipine, are also shown.

Abstract
The observation of an unusual crystal habit in the common diuretic drug hydrochlorothiazide (HCT), and identification of its subtle conformational chirality, has stimulated a detailed investigation of its crystalline forms. Enantiomeric conformers of HCT resolve into an unusual structure of conjoined enantiomorphic twin crystals comprising enantiopure domains of opposite chirality. The purity of the domains and the chiral molecular conformation are confirmed by spatially revolved synchrotron micro-XRD experiments and neutron diffraction, respectively. Macroscopic inversion twin symmetry observed between the crystal wings suggests a pseudoracemic structure that is not a solid solution or a layered crystal structure, but an unusual structural variant of conglomerates and racemic twins. Computed interaction energies for molecular pairs in the racemic and enantiopure polymorphs of HCT, and the observation of large opposing unit-cell dipole moments for the enantiopure domains in these twin crystals, suggest a plausible crystal nucleation mechanism for this unusual crystal habit.

Abstract
Collection of two optically pure enantiomers in a single crystallization process can significantly increase the chiral separation efficiency but this is difficult to realize. Now a self-reporting strategy is presented for visualizing the crystallization process by a dyed self-assembled inhibitor made from the copolymers with tri(ethylene glycol)-grafting polymethylsiloxane as the main chain and poly(N6 -methacryloyl-l-lysine) as side chains. When applied with seeds together for the fractional crystallization of conglomerates, the inhibitors can label the formation of the secondary crystals and guide the complete separation process of two enantiomers with colorless crystals as the first product and red crystals as the second. This method leads to high optical purity of d/l-Asn⋅H2 O (99.9 % ee for d-crystals and 99.5 % for l-crystals) in a single crystallization process. It requires a small amount of additives and shows excellent recyclability.

Abstract
We show that the solid-solid friction between bulk chiral molecular solids can depend on the relative chirality of the two materials. In menthol and 1-phenyl-1-butanol, heterochiral friction is smaller than homochiral friction, while in ibuprofen, heterochiral friction is larger. Chiral asymmetries in the coefficient of sliding friction vary with temperature and can be as large as 30%. In the three compounds tested, the sign of the difference between heterochiral and homochiral friction correlated with the sign of the difference in melting point between racemate (compound or conglomerate) and pure enantiomer. Menthol and ibuprofen each form a stable racemic compound, while 1-phenyl-1-butanol forms a racemic conglomerate. Thus, a difference between heterochiral and homochiral friction does not require the formation of a stable interfacial racemic compound. Measurements of chirality-dependent friction provide a unique means to distinguish the role of short-range intermolecular forces from all other sources of dissipation in the friction of bulk molecular solids.

Abstract
The crystal and molecular structures of 134 pairs of diastereoisomers and of 279 racemic-homochiral pairs were retrieved from the Cambridge Structural Database. Lattice and intramolecular energies are calculated. Density differences between crystals of stereoisomers of all kind are mostly within 5%, as observed also for crystal polymorphs. Racemic crystals are predominantly, but not exclusively, more stable and more dense. Denser crystals are predominantly more stable, but there is no quantitative correlation between density and energy differences between partners in the chosen pairs. Second-order symmetry operators are neither ubiquitous in the racemic nor patently superior to first-order operators in promoting crystal cohesion. Thermodynamic, energetic factors in the final crystalline products are not enough to explain the (largely) predominant occurrence of racemic crystallization from racemic solution. At least for homogeneous nucleation, a probabilistic factor, from kinetics or from statistical predominance of mixed versus enantiopure aggregates, must be in action during the early separation of liquid-like particles, which are thought to be the precursors of crystal nucleation.
