Metallo-helicoids are constructed by intermolecular coordination interactions between covalent linear polymer and tritopic/hexatopic molecular templates. These metallo-polymers with helicoidal conformation exhibit high antimicrobial activities against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative pathogens.
