Abstract
Abstract The molecular structure of gaseous acetoxime has been determined from a least-squares analysis of electron diffraction data. The skeleton of the gaseous molecule is planar and there are asymmetrical distortions on the CC distances and the CCN angles. The conformations of the two methyl groups are also different. The geometrical molecular parameters obtained are r g ( C 1 C 2 ) = 1.490(3) A , r g ( C 2 C 3 ) = 1.521(5) A , r g ( C 2 N ) = 1.289(1) A , r g ( NO ) = 1.423(2) A , ∠C1C2N = 116.4(2)°, ∠C1C2N = 123.4(3)° and ∠C2NO = 111.2(2)°.
