Abstract
Abstract The infrared circular dichroism (IRCD) due to the H-stretching vibrational modes of calycanthine originates principally from chromophore-substituent coupling and not from the degenerate interchromophore coupling mechanism particular to dissymmetric dimers. The general non-degenerate mechanism provides a procedure for the determination of absolute configuration from the IRCD associated with a localised characteristic vibrational mode.
