摘要

Determining the absolute configuration of chiral molecules is of fundamental importance in the fields of natural products chemistry, asymmetric catalysis, and pharmaceutical development. A widely adopted approach involves the comparison of experimental and theoretical electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra, which has proven to be a reliable method for absolute configuration assignment. However, the generation of theoretical ECD spectra via time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) remains the rate-limiting step in this workflow, making its acceleration both essential and challenging. Although recent advances in deep learning offer promising strategies for establishing structure-spectrum relationships and expediting theoretical spectrum prediction, the lack of standardized and comprehensive ECD spectral datasets continues to hinder progress. This study presents the Chiral Molecular Circular Dichroism Spectral (CMCDS) dataset, a systematically structural benchmark dataset that addresses the fragmentation of existing ECD data. Characterized by high standardization, scalability, and broad molecular diversity, CMCDS facilitates deep learning applications in ECD analysis and fosters data-driven discovery of chiral molecules.
