A LoSurdo discharge was used to apply electric fields of up to 290 kV/cm to a mixture of cyanogen and hydrogen, and to ammonia, permitting the observation of Stark effects in the optical spectra of the CH and NH molecules, respectively. These experiments yielded the following values of the molecular electric dipole moment in the ground vibrational states: μ(CH, A2Δ) = 0.887 ± 0.045 D, and μ(NH, X3Σ) = 1.389 ± 0.075 D. A table of experimental and theoretical dipole moments of first-row hydrides is included.

Spectra have been measured for eleven isotopic forms of imidazole, including single substitutions at each nucleus in turn. A complete rs-structure is obtained. The ring structure is: N(1)-C(2) = 1.364 Å, C(2)-N(3) = 1.314 Å, N(3)-C(4) = 1.382 Å, C(4)-C(5) = 1.364 Å, C(5)-N(1) = 1.377 Å, ≮N(1)C(2)N(3) = 112.0°, ≮C(2)N(3)C(4) = 104.9°, ≮N(3)C(4)C(5) = 110.7°, ≮C(4)C(5)N(1) = 105.5° and ≮C(5)N(1)C(2) = 106.9°. The N(1)-H(1) distance is 0.998 Å, while the C-H distances are all very close to 1.078 Å. The bonds N(1)-H(1) and C(2)-H(2) lie close to the external bisectors of the respective ring angles, but C(4)-H(4) and C(5)-H(5) are each displaced by several degrees from these bisectors towards N(3) and N(1) respectively. The electric dipole moment is established as 3.67 (5) D from Stark effects, directed almost parallel with the line joining the nitrogen nuclei. The properties and orientations of the two 14N-nuclear quadrupole tensors have been investigated, in particular through the spectra of the two mono-14N-imidazoles.

Hyperfine splittings of rotational transitions of 2,6-difluoropyridine have been analysed to yield the 14N quadrupole coupling constants. Their values are:Χaa = 1.82 ± 0.05 MHz, Χbb = - 4.16 ± 0.02 MHz, Χcc = 2.34 ± 0.05 MHz. The electric dipole moment has been determined from Stark effects as fi = 3.82 ± 0.06 D, and satellites in the rotation spectrum have been correlated with the five lowest fundamental vibrations of this molecule.The dipole moment, the quadrupole data and the structural differences between 2,6-difluoropyridine and pyridine itself can all be accounted for by the change in the electron distribution due to the fluorine substituents.
