Abstrakt: An anharmonic potential-effective charge approach is employed to treat Raman scattering from a helical molecule. Equations of motion are set up and solved. General expressions of dipole moments for various incident and scattered polarizations are derived. Raman selection rules are deduced there from and shown to form a set including, but larger than, the set derived by Higgs. Far from resonance, expressions of dipole moments are obtained and selection rules are shown to reduce to the Higgs ones. The symmetry of differential polarizability tensor is examined far from resonance and also under the additional assumption of weak coupling.
