Conclusions
-
1.
The conformational state of 1,1,1,3-tetrachloropropane was investigated by the PMR method in 11 solvents in a broad range of variation of the dielectric constant of the medium.
-
2.
At 34°, the 1,1,1,3-tetrachloropropane molecule exists in solution under conditions of rapid rotation around the C2-C3 bond primarily in the trans-form, characterized by minimum dipole-dipole and steric interactions of the CCl3 group and chlorine atom. Some changes in the geminal constants and the sum of the vicinal constants were detected with increasing polarity of the solvent.
