Abstract
This study investigated the applicability of fluorescent chromophores for exciton-coupled circular dichroism (ECCD) exploiting fluorescence-detected circular dichroism (FDCD). FDCD had been previously reported useful in allowing the sensitive detection of ECCD in favorable conditions. However, fluorescence detection may prevent applications of the combined method especially when solutions are polarized in emission. Even without polarization of emission, FDCD deviates from circular dichroism (CD) in some cases when the fluorophore of interest interacts with nonfluorescent chromophore. Herein, it was confirmed that employing 6-methoxy-2-naphthoate always yielded interpretable exciton-coupled FDCD spectra even when coupling with nonfluorescent p-substituted benzoates. The 6-methoxy-2-naphthoate chromophore (6-MN) is prescribed in special cases when only a small amount of sample is available for determining the absolute stereochemistry by the CD exciton chirality method observed by FDCD.
期刊介绍:
The main aim of the journal is to publish original contributions of scientific work on the role of chirality in chemistry and biochemistry in respect to biological, chemical, materials, pharmacological, spectroscopic and physical properties.
Papers on the chemistry (physiochemical, preparative synthetic, and analytical), physics, pharmacology, clinical pharmacology, toxicology, and other biological aspects of chiral molecules will be published.
