VCD on a supramolecular H-bonding motif

This work shows that the intuitive assumption of the sterically less hindered amide group being solvated preferentially does not hold for the cases of two 2,6-pyridinediyl-dialkylamides. Using vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy, solvation is found to induce significant conformational changes, which are not immediately apparent from 1H NMR data.

The work got rated as “hot paper” by the reviewers and was featured on the front cover of Chem. Eur. J. Read more about it in the Cover Profile or of course in the paper.
