Abstract

A scale for the quantitative assessment of the degree of shape chirality and for the absolute assignment of handedness is developed. The scale is based on a new definition of chirality, which, in turn, is based on the dynamic rotational properties of molecules. These concepts and their demonstration are carried out for the case of two-dimensional chirality, i.e., for chirality issues associated with adsorbate-surface interaction.
