The circular dichroism spectra of a series of optically active (α-aminocarboxylato)tetraamminecobalt(111) complexes have been measured in aqueous solution, and in the presence of salts of polarizable anions. The observed spectra in the visible region have been analysed to determine the signs of the Cotton effects of the three components of the 1A1g ↔ 1T1g cobalt(111) transition. For L-amino acids, the transition with A2g(D4h) parentage is negative, and the two transitions with Eg(D4h) parentage have opposite signs. Published circular dichroism spectra of complexes of the type [Co(en)2(L-am)]2+ were similarly interpreted in terms of a perturbed tetragonal chromophore, and it was shown that the vicinal effect of the L-amino acids imposed the same signs onto the component transitions as for the tetraammines and for a similar series of pentaamminecobalt(111) complexes.

Several polypeptides have been synthesized which contain the alternating sequence lysyl-X, where X = gly, L-ala, D-ala, L-val, L-leu, and L-phe. The polypeptides have been characterized by gel filtration (molecular weight) and by circular dichroism spectroscopy (secondary structure).

Racemic 3-ferrocenylalanine was resolved in enantiomers using brucine. The absolute configuration was estimated by ozonolytic degradation of the N-trifluoroacetyl derivative of the (-)-enantiomer yielding D-aspartic acid. Diastereoisomeric cyclo(D-ferrocenylalanyl-L-prolyl) and cyclo-(L-3-ferrocenylalanyl-L-prolyl) were synthesized using conventional methods of peptide synthesis. Circular dichroism spectra of these cyclodipeptides are discussed and compared with spectra of the corresponding diastereoisomeric cyclodipeptides containing phenylalanine.
