Vibrational optical activity as probe for intermolecular interactions
Literature Information
A main focus of physical chemistry and related disciplines targets a detailed and fundamental characterization of intermolecular interactions. Interests are manifold and range from gaining experimental evidence for a particular interaction to the theoretical dissection of its exact quantum mechanical origin. In this perspective article, we discuss some recent developments in the field of vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy, which aim for its application for the characterization of intermolecular interactions of chiral molecules. Following a brief qualitative discussion of theoretical aspects of VCD spectroscopy, we show how the introduction of chirality into suitable model systems can give unprecedented insights into molecular complexes in the solution phase. In particular, we focus on solute–solvent interactions as well as the formation of the active conformation between catalyst and reactant, and also discuss the phenomenon of induced VCD signatures of achiral interaction partners.

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.
