Abstract
The molecular structure of 2-fluorophenol and 2,6-difluorophenol have been determined by electron diffraction in the gas phase. The molecular geometries indicate possible formation of a weak intramolecular hydrogen bond between the OH and F substituents in ortho positions. The hydrogen bonds in 2-fluorophenol and 2,6-difluorophenol may be somewhat weaker than in tetrafluorohydroquinone but the relatively large experimental errors hinder a detailed comparison
