a C-C bond lengths are presented starting from that connecting the ring carbon atom where the carboxylic acid substituent is bound to the ortho carbon atom staying closest to the carbonyl oxygen atom and rotating through the ring. Experimental data for the crystals was taken from Refs. [20,21,22,23,24,30]. Calculated data are from this study and for both 2FBA and 2CBA correspond to the geometrical parameters of the cis-I conformer.
