Conclusions
-
1.
A method was developed for determining the anisotropies of polarizability in bonds and groups of atoms from data on the specific rotation of optically active molecules.
-
2.
The polarizability ellipsoids were determined for the cyclopropane ring and for the C-H and C-C bonds adjacent to it.
-
3.
The polarizability of cyclopropane is highest in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the ring.
