Comparison between experimental and calculated VCD spectra. a Experimental VCD spectra in water at 298 K of CNDs-S (red line) and CNDs-R (black line); b simulated VCD spectra obtained from DFT calculations of the cyclohexanediamine fragments (performed using the B3PW91 functional and a 6–31 G** basis set, water PCM solvation) with the insets showing the main displacement vectors for the computed chiral fragments
