Abstract

Chiroptical properties of chromophoric systems chemically attached to the side chains of polypeptides are described, in view of conformational analysis of biopolymers.
Advantages arising from the use of inherently chiral chromophores and photochromic systems, as suitable conformational probes, are discussed.
Use of photochromic macromolecules, as synthetic models for photoregulated biological polymers, is also pointed out.
