TL;DR: In this article, the procedure for calculating the optical rotatory power due to one electron transitions in an asymmetric field is simplified and systematized, and the necessary transformations of functions to elliptic coordinates are carried through explicitly and the method of calculation is outlined.
Abstract: The procedure for calculating the optical rotatory power due to one electron transitions in an asymmetric field is simplified and systematized. The necessary transformations of functions to elliptic coordinates is carried through explicitly and the method of calculation is outlined. Extensive tables and graphs were prepared which greatly simplify the calculations. The method is applied to benzoin and the results are compared with the published experimental results which vary characteristically with the solvent. Representing transitions by eigenfunctions involving changes in more than one electron is the next natural but difficult improvement in this type of treatment.
