Description
The orthobenzylic coupling constant, previously established as a probe of bond order, was used to examine this parameter in a series of ortho-bridged compounds: benzocyclopropene, 1,2-dihydrobenzocyclobutene, indan and tetralin. No evidence for sterically induced bond fixation (i.e. the Mills-Nixon effect) was found, but some evidence for electronic distortion in the corresponding benzylic ketones was observed. 30 refs., 2 tabs., ills
