For alkyl substituents and alkane chains in thin layers on surfaces it was found that adjacent alkyl chains align parallel to each other. We investigated Trioctyl-functionalized triazatriangulenium (TATA) deposited on Au(111) and Ag(111) surfaces by electrospray ionization using low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy. The molecules surprisingly adsorb with a bent geometry of the octyl groups making them chiral with eight possible configurations. When arranged in hexagonal networks however only one configuration was found making islands homochiral. We suggest a model of the geometry and a mechanism leading to the observed chiral amplification. Financial support by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft via the SFB 677 is gratefully acknowledged.
