Near-infrared (near-IR) Fourier transform vibrational circular dichroism (FT-VCD) spectroscopy has been used to monitor the epimerization of (S)-(+)-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4-methanol (S-DDM). The near-IR-VCD spectra display clear isolated VCD bands at the range of 4700-5050 cm(-1) resulting from the OH stretch-bend combination bands
