TL;DR: In this paper, the magneto-optic rotatory dispersion (MORD) is calculated for chloro-, bromo-, methyl-, and dimethyl substituted benzenes.
Abstract: The new dispersion formula derived by Murthy et al. has been used to calculate the magneto-optic rotativity (δ). The expression for magneto-optic rotatory dispersion (MORD), derived from the new dispersion relation reads as The magneto-optic rotativity or verdet constants are calculated for chloro-, bromo-, methyl-, and dimethyl substituted benzenes. The magneto-optic rotativities are measured experimentally at various wavelengths and the theoretical and experimental MORD curves are drawn. The results are discussed critically and the utility of the new expression for MOR is verified. The possible extension of this approach for structural studies is outlined.

TL;DR: In this paper, the mean molecular polarizabilities of substituted benzenes (chloro-, bromo-, methyl and dimethyl) were determined from a new dispersion relation.
Abstract: The mean molecular polarizabilities of some substituted benzenes (chloro-, bromo-, methyl- and dimethyl substituted benzenes) are determined from a new dispersion relation. Comparison of results with literature data shows satisfactory agreement.
