47. The CD spectrum of dibenzyl l-tartrate showed negative absorptions in this region
48. see the Supporting Information. Application of the exciton chirality method allowed these assignments: Circular Dichroism, Principles and Applications (Ed.: K. Nakanishi, N. Berova, R.W. Woody), VCH,Weinheim, 1994.
49. See also the theoretical calculations of the CD. This assignment also fit with the known shape and sign of the CD of related [n]-helicenes: F. Furche, R. Ahlrichs, C. Wachsmann, E. Weber, A. Sobanski, F. Vögtle, S. Grimme, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 1717-1724.
50. Transition energies and rotatory strengths were computed on (M,R,R)-3 and (P,R,R)-3 geometries based on the X-Ray structures. Theoretical spectra were simulated by overlapping Gaussian functions for the first 100 electronic states with an exponential half width of s=0.20 eV.
