The earlier prediction of the preferred and the less stable rotameric conformations of isobutyraldehyde, (CH3)2CHCHO, has been confirmed experimentally by microwave spectroscopy. The compound exists mainly in a gauche conformation, in which one of the methyl groups is eclipsed by the oxygen atom, and the less stable rotamer is the trans conformation, in which the oxygen atom eclipses the isopropyl hydrogen.Ground state rotational constants (in MHz) and centrifugal distortion constants (in kHz), together with dipole moments (in D), are:Rotation spectra due to three torsionally excited states of each rotamer have been identified, along with satellites arising from CH3 internal rotation and CC2 wagging.

For ethylbromide a determination of the parameters of internal rotation is given derived from the rotational spectrum of the torsional and vibrational ground state. The Br-hyperfine structure is reanalysed with higher precision. As high J transitions were measured a centrifugal distortion analysis was necessary.

Abstract The rotational structure of the 748 cm-1 c-type CH2-rocking fundamental of propane was analysed using tunable diode laser (TDL) techniques. On grounds of a low-resolution Fourier transform (FTIR) spectrum and of the known ground-state rotational and centrifugal-distortion constants, some 700 transitions were measured and assigned in several regions of the band. The upper-state constants determined in this way allow the prediction of rovibrational frequencies to within 0.003 cm-1, covering quantum states up to J = 50 and Ka = 20. The band appears unperturbed.

The microwave ground state spectra of methylphosphine-borane-(11B) and methylphosphinetrideuteroborane-(11B) have been measured by microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy and analysed for 11B-nuclear quadrupole hyperfine splittings and CH3 and BH3 torsion fine structure. As high J transitions were measured a centrifugal distortion analysis was necessary. The B-P bond order is discussed.

The microwave spectra of 79BrSCN and 81BrSCN have been measured and analysed to give rotational, centrifugal distortion, and Br quadrupole coupling constants. The molecule has been shown unambiguously to be BrSCN rather than BrNCS. A harmonic force field has been determined from combined vibrational and distortion data. With structural parameters for the SCN chain transferred from S(CN)2, both effective and ground state average values for the BrS length and BrSC angle have been estimated. The Br quadrupole tensor has been diagonalized, and the BrS bond is shown not to be bent.
