Absolute configuration and host-guest binding of chiral porphyrin-cages by a combined chiroptical and theoretical approach
Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy can be useful for determining the absolute configuration of chiral molecules, as long as the signal intensities are high enough. Here, the authors establish the absolute configurations of two large chiral porphyrin cages and, notably, discover that h...
