Structures of Toluene, Phenylsilane, and Diphenyldichlorosilane

Abstract

Electron diffraction data taken with a ``sector'' apparatus are presented. Procedures for the reduction of such data are discussed. Theoreticasl backgrounds (the sum of atomic coherent plus incoherent scattering) based on Pauling-Sherman and on Hartree atom form factors are compared with the curves observed. Structural information was derived from the resolution of radial distribution curves, and the final molecular models were checked by comparing theoretical molecular scattering curves with the reduced microphotometer traces.
