We present a method to calculate near-infrared (NIR) and NIR-vibrational circular dichroism (NIR-VCD) spectra up to the second CH-stretching overtone region in the local mode approximation. Atomic polar tensors and atomic axial tensors are first evaluated by DFT methodology for all CH stretching coordinates with systematic positive and negative displacements off-equilibrium and therefrom anharmonic dipole moment functions are constructed by polynomial interpolations. No adjustable parameters are employed up to this point. Rotational and dipole strengths are finally calculated by evaluating transition moments of Morse-type wave-functions. The method is applied to the case of Camphor and Camphorquinone, for which relevant differences in the vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) data are observed, which are predicted by our approach. Further steps are still to be made for a more complete treatment: the ab initio evaluation of mechanical anharmonicity and the introduction of mechanical and electrical coupling between local modes.
