Abstract
Using quantum-mechanical calculations, the most probable structures of cation–π complexes of Li+, Na+, and K+ with [6]helicene were derived. Further, the corresponding interaction energies of these complexes were calculated; the absolute values of these calculated energies increase in the series of K+ < Na+ < Li+.
