Notes:
Crystals of the AgNO3-trans-cyclodecene adduct are orthorhombic, a = 5,47, b = 14,69, c = 26,73 Å, space group Pbcn, with 4 formula units AgNO3·(C10H18)2 in the unit cell. The structure has been solved by the heavy-atom method and refined by full-matrix least-squares analysis of three-dimensional intensity data. The conformation of the trans-cyclodecene molecule has features in common with that of the cyclodecane ring, but the trans double bond is twisted about 40° from planarity. This deformation must contribute substantially to the strain-energy of trans-cyclodecene. The dependence of the twist-energy on the twist-angle is discussed.
