Dielectric and refractive index increments at 25°C are reported for some α,ω-dihydroperfluoroalkanes and α-hydro-ω-iodoperfluoroalkanes in benzene and CCl₄. Similar measurements on perfluorocyclohexane and perfluoro-n-hexane are used to deduce effective atomic polarizations for fluorocarbons in solution. The dipole moments obtained lead to a somewhat smaller characteristic ratio for the perfluoroalkane chain than had earlier been estimated by Bates and Stockmayer.
