The recently developed scaled moment-of-inertia procedure for obtaining near-equilibrium bond distances has been applied to ethane. The resulting prototype carbon–carbon equilibrium bond length is found to be 1.522±0.002 Å, in good agreement with an earlier estimate based on electron diffraction results.
