Abstract
Abstract The electron diffraction data of cycloheptanone, collected at 371 K, can be explained using a model of partial pseudorotation, with the symmetrical twist—chair as the mean structure. The r g , r α -structure is characterized by r (C-C) = 1.536 A, r (C=O) = 1.219 A, r (C-H) = 1.124 A, xxxCC( sp 2 )C = 117.3°, xxx(CCC = 115.5° and xxx(HCH = 103.2°. Approximate values for the constants of the pseudorotation potential are included.
