Circular dichroism curves are reported for a number of aralkylamines having a general formula R--CH(NH2)--R' (in which R and R' are alkyl-, aryl- or aralkyl-groups) and for 1-aminobenzocyclobutene, 1-aminoindane, 1-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene and 2-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydronaphthalene. The Cotton effects due to aromatic chromophore 1Lb and 1La absorption bands are discussed and simple correlations between absolute configuration and the signs of Cotton effects are deduced.
