Dipole moments and molar Kerr constants,
previously recorded by Le F�vre, Le F�vre, and Oh (1957) with only a
qualitative discussion pending availability of information on the anisotropic
polarizabilities of the C=C and N=N bonds, are here used to indicate the
apparent conformations of diethyl maleate, diethyl fumarate, and diethyl
azodiformate as solutes in carbon tetrachloride.
