Themagnetic moments in the ‘E’ states of tbe!:e molecules. seem-to be quenched by the effect:; of substituents. The magnetic moments in the ‘E’ states of benzene derivatives are sensitive to substitution in the benzene ring. f

Magnetic cir&lar dichroism (MCD) has,been used. for the ~vestigation of electronic ~tructur~:s of or- .’ : ganic and inorganic compounds and polymers. There, ‘, are many studies which have deaJt with the magnetic circular dic~ojsm of benzenoid [l-g] and non,, I benzenoid [7-P] aromatic hydrocarbons.,’ .. ” Fecently we have reported the MCD SpCCtKi of.
