Geometrical structures of the gem-dichlorocyclopropyl aryl selenides

Abstract

1. The para-substituted gem-dichloropropyl aryl selenides have been synthesized, for the first time, and studied through their13C NMR spectra and their dipole moments and Kerr constants. 2. These compounds exist as gauche conformers with syn and anti orientation of the aromatic ring with respect to the geminal C-Cl bonds. 3. Determination has been made of the dipole moment of the {Mathematical expression} bond. © 1980 Plenum Publishing Corporation.
