Abstract

On the ROA to somewhere: The first combined study of measured and computed Raman optical activity (ROA) of a transition metal complex under non-resonant scattering conditions is reported. ROA measurements of the two enantiomers of the dichloro[ethylenebis(4,5,6,7-tetrahydro-1-indenyl)] zirconium(IV) complex yield virtually mirror-image ROA spectra. The experimental spectra are directly comparable with predicted ROA spectra.
