The Dispersion and other Chiral Discriminations
Before the time of Pasteur, the problem of optical isomerism, as Thomas Graham put it in 1842, ‘defeated every attempt at explanation’ [1]. The sodiumammonium salts of tartaric and racemic acid, Graham continu...

The Ligand Polarization Model for the Spectra of Metal Complexes
Investigations of the optical activity of chiral metal complexes, discussed in the preceding Chapter, have the notable feature that the one-electron static-field model virtually monopolised the independent-sys...

New Types of Aromaticity
RECENTLY it has been shown1 that the two ideas of aromatic character and the aromatic sextet, which are generally associated in current theory, are not necessarily connected and that in addition to the well-known...

Optical Rotatory Power of DNA and of its Complex with Acridine Orange under Streaming Conditions
THIS communication reports the results of experiments in which left- and right-circularly polarized light is propagated along the flow lines of a streaming solution of DNA or of the DNA-AO (acridine orange (I)...

The Electronic Spectra, Optical Rotatory Power, and Absolute Configuration of O-Phenanthroline and 2,2′-Dipyridyl Complexes
The present work reports the circular dichroism spectra and the unpolarized light absorption of the tris-2, 2′-dipyridyl and the tris-1,10-phenanthroline complexes of Ni(II), Fe(II), Ru(II), Os(II), Ru(III) an...

Differential Isotope Effects in the Ortho- and Para-Bromination of Dimethylaniline
AN account of the kinetic isotope effect observed in the bromination of dimethylaniline in aqueous acid containing added bromide ions has been given previously1. We now report that the observed isotope effect var...

Kinetic Isotope Effect in the Bromination of Dimethylaniline
THE recent account by Shilov and Weinstein1 of a kinetic isotope effect in the iodination of some aromatic amines prompts us to report the observation of a similar effect in the bromination of dimethylaniline.

Primary Degradation Products of Mepacrine in Human Urines
IN a previous note1 it has been reported that 2-chloro-5-amino-7-hydroxyacridine is to be found in the urines of mepacrine-taking subjects. We have now subjected such urines to a separation technique based on tha...
