The rotational spectrum of diazirine, the most stable cyclic isomer of diazomethane, has been measured in the microwave and millimetre wave ranges up to 400 GHz. The a-type R- and Q-branch lines have been assigned in the ground vibrational state and a centrifugal distortion analysis is presented.To study the hyperfine structure induced by the two nitrogen nuclei, it was necessary to take into account the spin-rotation interaction as well as the nuclear quadrupole interaction to reproduce correctly the experimental spectra. The deduced hyperfine constants are given.

The rotational spectrum of diazirine-d2, [Formula: see text], has been recorded in the ranges 8–40 and 100–400 GHz. The hyperfine structure of the measured rotational lines has been analyzed. The analysis required the treatment of two pairs of equivalent nuclei, which is discussed in detail. The deduced deuterium nuclear-quadrupole coupling constants are[Formula: see text]The quadrupole coupling constants of the nitrogen nuclei[Formula: see text]are taken from the parent species, and the spin-rotation coupling constants are[Formula: see text]The rotational and centrifugal distortion constants have been obtained for the ground vibrational state from the analysis of the unperturbed line positions. The complete rs structure of diazirine has been determined using the rotational constants of all available isotopomers of diazirine. The internuclear distances are rs(C—N) = 148.13(24) pm, rs(C—H) = 108.03(29) pm, and rs(N—N) = 122.80(25) pm, and the bond angles are [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], with the HCH plane perpendicular to the NCN plane.

The rotational spectrum of dimethylsulfide has been measured in the millimetre-wave range between 140 and 300 GHz. A new computer program based on the internal-axis method has been used to analyze the rotational spectrum in its torsional ground state. It has allowed us to fit the spectrum satisfactorily and to determine the rotational, internal-rotation, and centrifugal-distortion constants accurately. The influence of the approximations made during the internal-rotation analysis on the moment of inertia (Ia, Ib, Ic, and Iα) is pointed out. It shows the difficulty in determining accurate geometrical structures of two-top molecules from microwave data. For the AA substate, effective rotational parameters are given that allow the calculation of transition frequencies of possible astrophysical interest.

Abstract We investigated the 33S nuclear quadrupole coupling of thiazole- 33S in natural abundance by molecular beam Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy. In addition the 14N nuclear quadrupole coupling could be analyzed with high precision. We derived the rotational constants A = 8529.29268 (70) MHz, B = 5427.47098 MHz, and C = 3315.21676 (26) MHz, quartic centrifugal distortion constants and the quadrupole coupling constants of 33S χaa = 7.1708 (61) MHz and χbb= -26.1749 (69) MHz and of 14N χ aa = -2.7411 (61) MHz and χbb = 0.0767 (69) MHz.

An investigation of the rotational spectrum of CH332SH, one of the most recent molecules to be detected in the interstellar medium, has been carried out over the 25–107 GHz region. The frequencies of a-type Δk = 0 R-branch transitions have been measured for the J = 1 ← 0 up to J = 4 ← 3 multiplets for torsional states νt = 0–3. In addition, many P-, Q-, and R-branch transitions with Δk ≠ 0 have been identified in order to provide a catalogue of lines for potential radio astronomical applications. Improved values of rotational and centrifugal distortion constants, a-type torsion–vibration–rotation interaction constants, and torsional barrier parameters (V3 = 444.76 cm−1; effective V6 = −2.07 cm−1) have been determined from least-squares analyses of the spectra.

AbstractThe boron and nitrogen hyperfine structure in the rotational spectra of two aminoborane isotopomers, 11 BH2NH2 and 10BH2NH2, has been investigated and the quadrupole coupling constants of boron 10B, 11B and nitrogen 14N have been determined. We get the following results for the nuclear quadrupole coupling constants: χaa(11B) = -1.684 (14) MHz, χbb(11B) = -2.212 (11) MHz, χcc(11B) = 3.896(11) MHz, χaa(10B) = -3.481 (11) MHz, χbb(10B) = -4.623 (14) MHz, χCC(10B) = 8.104 (14) MHz and xaa(14N) = 0.095 (9) MHz, χbb(14N) = 2.091 (8) MHz, χcf4 (14N)=-2.186 (8) MHz. These nitrogen quadrupole coupling constants are those of the 11BH2 NH2 isotopomer. Additionally we were able to determine two out of the three spin rotation coupling constants caa, cbb, and ccc of boron, caa(11 B = 55.2 (26) kHz, cbb(11B) = 6.62 (36) kHz, caa (10B) = 15.26 (69) kHz and cbb(10B) = 4.94 (70) kHz. The spin rotation coupling constants ccc had to be fixed to zero in both cases. Furthermore we measured the rotational spectra in the mm-wave region to determine all quartic and several sextic centrifugal distortion constants according to Watson's A and S reduction

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.
