Conformational search: We used the geometries found in our previous work, where a manual conformational search was performed using a crystal structure of α2ß2-P[SO4 2-][HSO4 -]4, as starting point for constructing primary porphyrin/(R)-CSA complexes followed by geometry optimization in acetonitrile. All conformers found previously were reoptimized in two solvents (chloroform and dichloromethane) using Gaussian16 Rev. C.01, BP86 -D3BJ /def2-SVP and Solvation Model Based on Density (SMD) continuum solvent model, where the molecular surface was represented as Solvent Accessible Surface (SAS) and Bondi atomic radii were used. Vibrations and Gibbs free energy corrections were calculated at the same level of theory. More accurate electronic energy single point calculations were done using the BP86-D3BJ/def2-TZVPP level of theory and SMD continuum solvent model with SAS and Bondi atomic radii.
