Dipole moments and molar Kerr constants are reported for five organic disulphides R2S2 (where R is methyl, t-butyl, phenyl, p-chlorophenyl, and β-naphthyl)in carbon tetrachloride solution. The experimental data are analysed to show (a) that each molecule has a skew structure with dihedral angles in the range 88-85� between the planes C?-S-S and S-S-C"; (b) that the anisotropic electron polarizabilities of the S-S group in dimethyl disulphide are bL = 4.66 �3, bT = bv = 2.25 �3; and (c) that in the aromatic disulphides the aryl group planes are nearly coplanar with their respective Car-S-S groups.

Dipole moments and molar Kerr constants are reported for methyl, ethyl, and phenyl chloroformates in carbon tetrachloride and in benzene. The experimental data are analysed to provide information on the conformational preferences of the solutes in the ?inert? CCl4 environment and on solute-solvent associations in benzene.

Electric dipole moments and molar Kerr constants are reported for seven organic carbonates (dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, vinylene carbonate, diphenyl carbonate, di-p-tolyl carbonate, di-o- tolyl carbonate and t-butyl phenyl carbonate) examined as solutes in carbon tetrachloride at 25�. The experimental data are analysed to provide information on the probable solution-state conformations.

Measurements are reported of the infinite-dilution dipole moments and molar Kerr constants of dimethyl sulfone and of the four aryl methyl sulfones p-XC6H4S(02)CH3 (X = H, Cl, Br or NO2) dissolved in carbon tetrachloride or dioxan at 298 K and under light of 589 nm. The experimental data are analysed to obtain information on the solution-state conformations in relation to steric and electromeric effects operative between the aryl and methanesulfonyl groups.

Molar Kerr constants ( x 10-12) are reported for 2,4,6-trichloromesitylene, 2,4,6.tribromomesitylene, and 2,4,6-triiodomesitylene as solutes in carbon tetrachloride and for 2,4,6-trinitromesitylene as a solute in benzene. Microwave absorption measurements indicate the non-polarity of all four solutes and the small apparent dipole moments observed for some of these solutes can be ascribed to atomic polarization. The substituents are not therefore staggered as has previously been suggested for 2,4,6-trinitromesitylene. Estimates of the polarizability semi-axes for these molecules are given.

Infinite-dilution dipole moments (1030p/Cm) and molar Kerr constants (1027mK/m5 V-2 mol-1) for 1-pivaloylnaphthalene (8.83,-490) and 2-pivaloylnaphthalene (9.24, 218) as solutes in carbon tetrachloride at 25�C are reported and analysed to yield the dihedral angles between the Car-CO-C and naphthyl planes as 90 � 10� and 53 � 8�, respectively.

Experimental dipole moments and molar Kerr constants are reported and analysed for di(pyridin-4-yl), di(pyridin-3-yl) and di(pyridin-2-yl) ketone as solutes in carbon tetrachloride or cyclohexane at 298 K. The preferred conformation of di(pyridin-4-yl) ketone is found to be very similar to those previously deduced for benzophenone and several 4,4'- disubstituted benzophenones. For di(pyridin-3-yl) and di(pyridin-2-yl) ketone three analogous conrotatory structures having different relative dispositions of the nitrogen atoms are considered. In the case of di(pyridin-3-yl) ketone the cis-trans and trans-trans arrangements are approximately equally abundant, but for di(pyridin-2-yl) ketone there is a strong preference for the trans-trans conformation.

Ab initio molecular orbital theory has been used to deduce the preferred gas-phase conformations of vinyl formate and vinyl acetate. In addition, experimental dipole moments (1030μ/Cm) and molar Kerr constants (1027mK/m5 V-2 mol-1) at 25�C are reported for both molecules as solutes in carbon tetrachloride: vinyl formate (5.07, + 48.1) and vinyl acetate (5.70, + 3.8). The preferred solution-state conformations indicated by the analysis of these results are shown to be consistent with the theoretical predictions.

Experimental dipole moments and molar Kerr constants are reported for eight 4- and 4,4?-halogeno- and -methyl-benzophenones as solutes in carbon tetrachloride at 298 K. Analysis of the results elucidates the conformational preferences of these molecules and suggests that steric effects are of predominant importance, whereas the additional conjugative interactions provided by the substituents apparently play only a minor role.

Experimental dipole moments and molar Kerr constants at 25�C are reported for di(4-pyridyl) disulphide (1.68 D, + 11 x 10-12 e.s.u. mol-1) and di(2-pyridyl) disulphide (3.95 D, -240x10-12 e.s.u. mol-1) as solutes in carbon tetrachloride. Analysis of results yields information concerning the preferred conformations of these molecules.
