The couplings between all amide fundamentals and their overtones and combination vibrational states are calculated. Combined with the level energies reported previously (Hayashi, T.; Zhuang, W.; Mukamel, S. J. Phys. Chem. A 2005, 109, 9747), we obtain a complete effective vibrational Hamiltonian for the entire amide system. Couplings between neighboring peptide units are obtained using the anharmonic vibrational Hamiltonian of glycine dipeptide (GLDP) at the BPW91/6-3 I G(d,p) level. Electrostatic couplings between non-neighboring units are calculated by the fourth rank transition multipole coupling (TMC) expansion, including 1/R-3 (dipole-dipole), 1/R-4 4 (quadrupole-dipole), and 1/R-5 (quadrupole-quadrupole and octapole-dipole) interactions. Exciton delocalization length and its variation with frequency in the various amide bands are calculated. The simulated infrared amide I and II absorptions and CD spectra of 24 residue (x-helical motifs (SPE3) are in good agreement with experiment.
