✦ Synopsis
In an article by H. J. Monkhorst in a previous issue of this journal it is stated that the predominant geometrical change during the internal rotation in ethane is a stretching of the CC bond and that the rotation barrier presumah!y originates from the central bond only. These statements appear either erroneous or at variance with the findings of other authors.
