Staggered conformers contributing to exciton coupling CD in threo (iaic) and erythro (iiaiic) isomers of acyclic dibenzoyl 2-amino-3-alkanols. Blue and red shaded spheres represent N-Bz and O-Bz chromophores groups, respectively (λmax ~228 nm. The net signs of the observed split Cotton effects are consistent with predominant contributions from conformers ia and iia, respectively. Conformers ib and iic have anti-parallel transition dipole moments and give zero contributions to the ECCD’s. See also Figure 1.
