optically active polymer

https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.OT07179
Polymer capable of rotating the @P04712@ plane of a transmitted beam of linear-polarized light.
Note:
The @O04303@ originates from the presence of @C01057@ elements in a polymer such as @C01057@ centers or @C01057@ axes due to long-range conformational order in a polymer (@H02763@).
