The first‐neighbor approximation for the representation of double‐stranded polynucleotide CD has been widely applied. Two apparently different formalisms have appeared. We discuss and compare those formalisms and show them to be identical. We present an updated optimum basis set of polydeoxynucleotide CD spectra and the resulting first‐neighbor unit contribution matrix derived from these data.
