NIR chiroptical switching: The first demonstration of significant chiroptical switching in the NIR spectral region of 700–2000 nm (see figure) is made with novel redox‐active chiral molecules. These are designed according to a newly established unambiguous structural model correlating chiroptical properties with geometric structures.
