contents We investigate phenomenological implications of vector bosons $V$ transforming as (1, 2, -3/2) under the standard model (SM) product gauge group $SU(3)_C$, $SU(2)_L$ and $U(1)_Y$. These vector bosons can couple to two SM leptons at tree-level forming dimension-4 operators. These operators dictate $V$ to have two units of global lepton number, $ΔL = 2$. The operators generated conserve the global lepton number but can violate generational lepton numbers. We study constraints on the couplings $Y$ of $V$ to SM particles using tree-level processes such as $l_α^{-} \to l_β^{+} l_ρ^{-} l_σ^{-}$, muonium and antimuonium oscillation, neutrino trident scattering, inverse muon decay, $e^- e^+ \to l^- l^+$, and also one-loop level processes such as the magnetic dipole moment of a charged lepton and $l_i \to l_j γ$. Strong constraints are obtained from $l_α^{-} \to l_β^{+} l_ρ^{-} l_σ^{-}$ with $\left|Y_{e e} Y^{*}_{μe}\right| < 3.29 \times 10^{-11}\left(m_{V}/ \mathrm{GeV}\right)^{2},\left|Y_{e e} Y^{*}_{e μ}\right| < 3.29 \times 10^{-11}\left(m_{V}/ \mathrm{GeV}\right)^{2}$ and from $l_i \to l_j γ$ with $ \left|Y_{τe}Y_{μτ}^{*}\right|<3.46\times10^{-12}(m_{V}/ \mathrm{GeV})^2, \left|Y_{e τ}Y_{τμ}^{*}\right|<3.46\times10^{-12}\left(m_{V}/ \mathrm{GeV}\right)^2$, respectively. Interestingly, the imaginary part of the coupling constant in our model induces CP violation, which is constrained by experimental limits on the electric dipole moment.
