The Raman spectrum of Fe(C0)5 indicates t h a t this assumption is not justified. Also, they had no effective means of estimating the %O bond energy from that of carbon monoxide. The Fe-C and Ni-C bond energies calculated here are of the same order of magnitude as bond energies calculated for Sn-C and Pb-C, indicating that the Fe-C and Ni-C bonds must have a bond order only slightly larger than 1.16 This result is consistent with the values for the Sn-C,Pb-C, Zn-C and

The purpose of this investigation was to see what information about the structure of tetrazoles could be obtained from dipole moment measurements and whether it was possible to recognize “meso-ionic” compounds by such measurements. Experimental Materials and Methods.-Mallinckrodt, analytical reagent grade benzene was purified by crystallizing twice and then fractiimally distilling after standing several days over freshly cut and ribboned sodium. All was rejected but the center cut which was redistilled in the same nianner before use.

The vapor pressure data of tetrazole seem to intlicate that its dipole moment in benzene should be lower than the dioxane value of Jensen and Friediger. It is also apparent from melting point data that intramolecular bonding to ring nitrogens by amino hydrogen is hindered by alkylating the amine if another allyl is in the one position.
