Summary

  1. 1.

    Goniometric measurements were carried out on polyhalobenzenes and their derivatives (15 compounds in all) having substantial steric hindrance in their molecules.

  2. 2.

    The unit cell parameters, the space groups, and some other crystallochemical characteristics of these crystals were determined.

  3. 3.

    2,6-Diiodo-4-nitroanisole was shown to be dimorphous. 4. The coordinates of the heavy atoms were determined for two of the substances, (3,4,5-trichloroaniline hydrochloride and 1,3,5-trichloro-2-nitrobenzene), and the full structure was determined for one of the substances (2-bromo-1,3,5-trichlorobenzene).

  4. 5.

    From the substances studied, a selection was made of those showing the greatest promise for full structural analysis.
