There has been made an assumption, correlating with experimental data, that the phenomenon of effectively chiral-pure, chiral-induced spiralization of macromolecules in weakly polarized heterochiral solutions is determined by the mechanism of physico-chemical annihilation: enantiomers-antipodes of a chiral compound in a heterochiral solution annihilate; that is, they form achiral dimers, the solution becomes effectively homochiral and further, chiral-induced macromolecular spiralization of one sign of helicity is realized in it in the same way as in other homochiral solutions.
