The heat of the coil‐helix transition of poly‐γ‐benzyl‐<scp>L</scp>‐glutamate in the solution

Abstract

Abstract Combining the heats of dilution of the Poly‐γ‐benzyl‐ L ‐glutamate/ dichloroacetic acid/chloroform solution with the corresponding heats of mixing of the two solvents, the integrated heat of the coil/helix transition of poly‐γ‐benzyl‐ L ‐glutamate in the solution was estimated to be about 1 kcal/unit mole.
