This computational study of selected 3-methylhexane and camphor derivatives demonstrates the limitations of focusing on chromophores. We conclude that in a hybrid of experiment and theoretical computation lies the future of determining absolute configurations.Structure-property relationships of prototypical chiral compounds: Case studiesjournal_article10.1021/jp036256j000220724300005
