Abstract
Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra in the 1600-700 $cm^{-1}$ region will be reported for the title compounds. The spectra were obtained for $CCl_{4}$ and $CS2$ solutions. Ab initio localized molecular orbital (LMO) predictions of VCD for methyl lactate, obtained with the $6-31G^{*}$ basis set, will also be presented. There is a remarkable agreement between the observed and predicted VCD spectra.
