Absolute Configuration Determination with Electronically Enhanced Vibrational Circular Dichroism. [PDF]
We introduce a practical workflow for simulating vibrational circular dichroism spectra enhanced by vibronic coupling. We achieve qualitative agreement with experiment for Co(II) and Ni(II) spartein complexes, circumventing inaccuracies in theoretical excitation energy predictions.

Single-Step Insertion of Organic Sulfur Into a Fe<sub>6</sub>C Carbide Carbonyl Cluster, Including the Natural Amino Acid L-Cysteine: Vibrational Circular Dichroism and Chirality Transfer. [PDF]
We describe a one‐pot synthetic procedure for the functionalization with organosulfur ligands of hexa‐iron carbide carbonyl clusters. This synthetic procedure is highly versatile and may be applied to alkyl, aryl, and functionalized organic sulfur reagents, including the chiral amino acids L‐ and D‐cysteine.

Bioprospecting of Labdane-Type Diterpenes From Austroeupatorium laetevirens: Molecular Networking, Structural Elucidation, and Biological Activity Evaluation. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Labdane‐type diterpenes are the main specialized metabolites in the Austroeupatorium genus, known for diverse biological activities. This study employed molecular networking to facilitate the identification of labdanes in Austroeupatorium laetevirens, alongside isolation, structural elucidation, and evaluation of anti‐Mycobacterium ...

Towards the Limits of Vibrational Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy: VCD Spectra of Some Alkyl Vinylethers [PDF]
AbstractThree alkyl vinylethers from our collection of chiral samples were investigated through VCD spectroscopy, in combination with Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations. Despite the simplicity of the compounds, reproducing all the spectral features is an involved task, since the many significantly populated conformers contribute to the total ...
