N2  - Experimental dipole moments and molar Kerr constants are reported for eight 4- and 4,4?-halogeno- and -methyl-benzophenones as solutes in carbon tetrachloride at 298 K. Analysis of the results elucidates the conformational preferences of these molecules and suggests that steric effects are of predominant importance, whereas the additional conjugative interactions provided by the substituents apparently play only a minor role.
