The present article reviews the results of solid-state vibrational circular dichroism (SD-VCD) measurements on the crystals of amino acids. The investigated series were Ala, Ile, Leu, Phe, Ser, Val, and Thr. Spectra were recorded for the samples containing both D- and L-enantiomers. The molecular conformation in a crystalline state was compared among the series. Molecule optimization of their conformation under intermolecular interactions in crystalline states was revealed. One noteworthy aspect was that some VCD peaks were remarkably
