Carbon‐13 and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (n.m.r.) spectra of ten chlorinated hydrocarbons, which are components of technical chlordane and one chlordane metabolite, were examined. For chlordene, dichlorochlordene, cis ‐ and trans ‐nonachlor, and cis ‐ and trans ‐chlordane, whose chemical structures are well‐established, the relationships between the n.m.r. parameters and these structures were investigated. The results allow confirmation of proposed structures for α‐, β‐, and γ‐chlordene. A structure, corresponding to 2,4,5,5,6,7,8,8‐octachloro‐2,3,3a,4,5,7a‐hexahydro‐1,4‐methano‐1‐ H ‐indene, is proposed for another chlordane component, previously known only as Compound K.
