Abstract
Abstract Vibration spectra of dichloroacetyl chloride have been measured in the gaseous, liquid and solid states and also in solutions. From the experimental result it was concluded that in the gaseous and liquid states there exist two molecular forms, of which only the more polar form persists in the solid state. The energy difference between these two forms is almost zero in the liquid state and amounts to about 200 cal mole in the gaseous state, the less polar form being more stable. In this form the oxygen atom is in the cis-position with respect to the hydrogen atom. The more polar form is obtained from this form by an internal rotation about the C-C axis by about 90°.
