The Chirality Chain in Valine: How the Configuration at the Cα Position through the OcisC′CαN Torsional System Leads to Distortion of the Planar Group CαC′(Ocis)Otrans to a Flat Tetrahedron
Abstract Solid‐state structures, based on a Cambridge Structural Database (CSD) search, show that there is a CαN/C′Ocis attraction in the torsional system OcisC′CαN of valine, causing a chirality chain. The Cα configuration controls the chirality of the rotation around the C′−Cα bond, which in turn...
