Polarisation and polarisability study of some chlorinated cyclodiene insecticides
Abstract
The dipole moments and molar Kerr constants are reported for Aldrin, Dieldrin, Isodrin, Endrin, the keto-isomer of Endrin, Heptachlor, and Heptachlor cis-oxide as solutes in carbon tetrachloride. These data are used to obtain polarity and polarisability parameters for the structurally significant groups present.
