Abstract
The anisotropic circular dichroism (ACD) and the chiral induction (HTP) are two chirality measurements of very different kind. For two binaphthyls diagonal elements of the circular dichroism (CD) tensor have been determined from the temperature dependence of the ACD and diagonal elements of the chirality interaction tensor from the temperature dependence of the HTP as a function of the order parameters. The tensor coordinate of the CD tensor and the chirality interaction tensor which belongs to the direction along the naphthyl-naphtyl bond determines mainly the ACD and HTP, respectively. In both cases an order independent contribution to the ACD and HTP exist.
