Abstract
Joint considerations of twofold symmetry axes producing various
orientations of carboxylic groups and of non-coplanarity of
these groups in a dimer lead to a new classification of orientational
disorder in crystal s of cyclic dimers of carboxylic acids.
Analysis of the geometry and particularly of the anisotropic
thermal parameters of carboxylic atoms allows one to distinguish
between the possible types of orientational disorder. Influences of
dynamic disorder and mesomeric effects are discussed as well.
