Interatomic Distances of FCCl3 and FCBr3

Abstract

IN some early work we measured the interatomic distances of different methane and silane halides by means of the electron diffraction method. We wish to give here distances between atoms of FCCl3 and FCBr3 measured by the same method. These substances have been prepared and purified by Prof. F. Swarts. We are much indebted to him for giving us the opportunity of measuring these substances.
