The effective control of chirality on surfaces is crucial for applications such as enantioselective heterogeneous catalysis and nonlinear optics. Here, the authors study the on-surface synthesis of organometallic polymers and their chiral expression on Ag(110), demonstrating that kinetic effects play an important role in determining polymer chirality.
