Chiral self-recognition in the gas phase: the case of glycidol dimers
Literature Information
Nicole Borho, Thomas Häber, Martin A. Suhm
Supersonic jet FTIR spectra of the OH-stretching bands of glycidol monomers and clusters are presented. Chiral discrimination leads to marked differences in the absorption patterns of RR (SS) s. RS glycidol dimers. The dominant absorption peaks are located at 3492 (RR, SS) and 3488 cm−1 (RS) within a rich line spectrum with sizeable variations between enantiomerically pure and racemic dimers. A spectral difference technique is used to emphasize the intermolecular diastereomeric effects. Glycidol is possibly the first and likely the smallest molecule for which chiral self-recognition has been experimentally demonstrated in the gas phase. It thus lends itself very well to accurate quantum chemical calculations of the chiral discrimination effect. Qualitative results of exploratory calculations are reported.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
