There has been made an assumption, correlating with experimental data, that the phenomenon of effectively chiral‐pure, chiral ‐ induced spiralization of macromolecules in weakly polarized heterochiral solutions is determined by the mechanism of physico‐chemical annihilation: enantiomers‐antipodes of a chiral compound in a heterochiral solution annihilate; that is, they form achiral dimers, the solution becomes effectively homochiral and further, chiral‐induced macromolecular spiralization of one sign of helicity is realized in it in the same way as in other homochiral solutions.
