Triarylmethylium-o,o-dimers adopt a twisted geometry so that two diarylmethyliums are stacked in a slipped manner. Thus, chiral auxiliaries on the aryl groups induce a preference in the axial chirality of the central biphenyl unit. Strong circular dichroism is attained through exciton coupling, which can be used for additional spectral output in their electrochromic behavior. Diastereoselectivity based on π–π stacking exhibits unique solvent effects, thus endowing multifunctional response properties.

Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) emerged during the last decade as a reliable tool for the absolute configuration (AC) determination of organic compounds. The principles, instrumentation, and methodology applied prior to early 2013 were recently reviewed by us. Since VCD is a very dynamic field, the aim of this review is to update VCD advances for the AC assignment of terpenoids, aromatic compounds, alkaloids, and other natural products for the 2013-2014 period, when VCD was applied to the AC assignment of some 70 natural products. In addition, although discovered in 2012, a brief introduction to the VCD exciton coupling approach and its applications in natural products AC assignment is presented.
