Solvent Action on Optical Rotatory Power. II. The Quadrupole Field of the CS2 Type Molecule

Abstract

The applications of the general expression for the vectorial solvent field in organic liquids are further extended by detailed consideration of quadrupole molecules of the types CS₂. The results of the computation are found satisfying from a theoretical standpoint. The experimental control is undertaken with the aid of a previously developed theory of optical rotatory power in solution. The results are found to be in accord with the existing data.
