We discuss the theoretical prediction of vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra using ab initio density functional theory (DFT) and the application of this methodology to the determination of the absolute configurations and conformations of chiral molecules.

## Abstract A combination of ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) absorption and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy was applied to investigate the structure and formation of large supramolecular DNAβprotein complexes. This combination of techniques was used to overcome limitations of UVβCD (electro
## Abstract We establish the general behavior of absorption and vibrational circular dichroism spectra (VCD) of a chiral HCCH fragment lacking all symmetry elements; the study is limited to CHβstretching modes, and the Hamiltonian employed is written in terms of normalβmode coordinates and momenta
