Popis: Following changes in chirality can give access to relevant information on the function or reactivity of molecular systems. Time-resolved circular dichroism (TRCD) spectroscopy proves to be a valid tool to achieve this goal. Depending on the class of molecules, different temporal ranges, spanning from seconds to femtoseconds, need to be investigated to observe such chiroptical changes. Therefore, over the years, several approaches have been adopted to cover the timescale of interest, especially based on pump–probe schemes. Moreover, various theoretical approaches have been proposed to simulate and explain TRCD spectra, including linear and non-linear response methods as well as non-adiabatic molecular dynamics. In this review, an overview on both experimental and theoretical advances in the TRCD field is provided, together with selected applications. A discussion on future theoretical developments for TRCD is also given.
