A recently developed method for fitting a Monte Carlo computer-simulation model to observed single-crystal diffuse X-ray scattering has been used to study the diffuse scattering in 4,4'-dimethoxybenzil, C16H14O4. A model involving only nine parameters, consisting of seven intermolecular force constants

The preparation and mesomorphic properties of a substituted bis(dithiolene)nickel complex derived from 4, 4'-dimethoxybenzil are reported. The phase transition temperatures were based on data obtained by polarized light microscopy and differential scanning calorimetry. The mesogenic phase existed over the temperature

The pyrolyisis of di-tert-butyl peroxyoxalate in the presence of para-substituted benzaldehydes produces almost quantitatively the corresponding p,p'-disubstituted benzils. The formation of these products is accompanied by chemiluminescence arising from excited triplets. From the quantum yield of excited triplet generation and
