Abstract
The e.s.r. spectrum of the norbornadien-7-yl radical shows that its trigonal carbon atom (Cα) is more pyramidal than that of the cyclopropyl radical; it is suggested that the pyramidal deformation of the former is due to electron transfer interaction from the etheno bridges to Cα as well as to the small bond angle around Cα.Keywords
