Abstract
A theoretical study of Οβelectron spin density distributions has been made for a series of fluoroβsubstituted hydrocarbon radical cations using unrestricted HartreeβFock theory. Although some of the predicted proton splittings are not in very good agreement with experiment, the overall agreement with experiment can be passed as fairly satisfactory considering the approximate nature of the theory used. The experimental fluorine splittings can be well predicted by using a oneβparameter relationship between the isotropic fluorine splitting (a~F~) and the Οβelectron spin density (Ο~CC~) on the attached carbon. It has been further shown that both Ο~CC~ and the proportionality constant (Q~eff~) in the linear relation, are fairly insensitive to the parameter choice.

## Spin density distributions in ethyl, isopropyl and t-butyl radicals have been obtained by employing the unrestricted Hartree-Fock procedures and using hyperconjugative and hyperconjugative-inductive models for the methyl group. The results are in quite good agreement with experiment.
