Enantiopure synthetic bilirubin analogs with variously modified (e.g. alkyl
for natural propionic acid or ester) C(8) and C(12) side chains and with b
ut a single chiral center in either or both, exhibited exciton coupled circ
ular dichroism (CD) spectra. The CD intensity is greater when the stereogen
ic center is in a propionic acid side chain than in an alkyl side chain. (C
