Stereochemical elucidation of molecules with multiple chiral centers is difficult. Even with VCD spectroscopy, excluding all but one diastereomeric structural candidates is challenging because stereochemical inversion of one chiral center...

Interactions of two chromophores such as carbonyl groups yield a strong VCD couplet that reflects molecular structures. Use of VCD couplets for biomacromolecular structural studies has been hampered by severe...

Non-invasive fatty acid (FA) metabolic imaging is crucial for the evaluation of cardiac function in the heart. Currently, single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) imaging are...
