Optical Rotatory Dispersion of Helical Polymers
Abstract
It is shown that for every transition in its individual residues, a helix has two transitions whose moments are respectively parallel and perpendicular to the screw axis. The largest contributions to the rotational strengths of these bands are equal and opposite in the two cases. As a result, their net effect on the optical activity contains a term proportional to the interval between the two upper states. This term shows abnormal dispersion and its magnitude and sign are more easily interpreted than any other component of the rotatory power.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
