Abstract
Besides biopolymers and, perhaps, highly stereoregular OAP, which are able to take preferential conformation in solution, there is a class of polymers which are optically active but without high structural regularity, therefore having very low probability for ordered secondary structures in solution. The question of what can be deduced from their optical activity is considered. Factors influencing chiroptical properties of OAP in solution are discussed. It is shown that ORD and CD of unordered polymers can be useful to detect and to study chemical reactions or interactions which can occur when external conditions (temperature, pH, solvent…) are modified. Neutralization of different polyelectrolytes and interactions of mineral salts with an optically active nylon-type polyamide in methanolic solutions are given as examples. For most of them, a non-linear variation of optical activity as a function of the degree of reaction is observed. In the last section, an attempt is made to explain this feature from simple assumptions based on neighboring effects of the different monomeric units present in a partially modified polymer.
