Abstract
The configurational relationships of aliphatic and aromatic disubstituted carboxylic acids having been established, it was possible to study the vicinal effect of the phenyl group on the carboxyl group. It was found that the effect of the phenyl group is not different from that of a normal hexyl or a cyclohexyl group. This phenomenon is due, perhaps, to the fact that the absorption bands of the phenyl group nearest to the visible region are not optically active.Keywords
