Abstract The microwave spectra of CF3CN, CH2FCN, CHDFCN, CD2FCN and CHF2CN have been measured and analysed. The nuclear quadrupole hyperfine splittings due to 14N have been measured by Microwave Fourier Transform spectroscopy. The nuclear quadrupole coupling constants, transformed to the bonding axis systems of the C-C ≡ N groups, are shown to be in accord with structural predictions of the p-electron populations at the nitrogen atom.

AbstractThe barrier heights (V3) hindering methyl internal rotation were determined with microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy from the ground vibrational state for the title molecules and found to be V3 = 3.336(52) kcal/mol for ethyl isocyanide, V3 > 3.1 kcal/mol for iso-propyl isocyanide, V3 = 2.894(23) kcal/mol for gauche-n-propyl isocyanide and V3 = 2.954(22) kcal/mol for transn- propyl isocyanide. The quadrupole coupling constants of iso-propyl isocyanide are χaa = 179.3(31) kHz, χbb = -140(15) kHz and χcc - 39(15) kHz; the constants of trans-n-propyl isocyanide were determined to be χaa = 268.1 (71) kHz, χbb = - 108(23) kHz and χcc = - 160(23) kHz.

AbstractThe rotational spectrum of l-isocyanoprop-2-yne, HC≡CCH2NC, has been measured in the vibrational ground state by microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy from 5 to 26.5 GHz. The nuclear quadrupole hyperfine splittings due to 14N have been analysed to obtain the coupling constants χaa = 290.3(78) kHz, χbb = 10.6(80) kHz and χcc= -300.9(80) kHz

Abstract Employing the high resolution of microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy, we investigated the lowest rotational transitions of fluoro-, bromo-, and iodoacetylene-d. Along with the rotational, centrifugal distortion, halogen nuclear quadrupole, and halogen spin-rotation coupling constants, we determined the deuterium quadrupole coupling constants of bromo-and iodoacetylene-d. For fluoroacetylene-d, we redetermined the deuterium nuclear quadrupole coupling constants with higher accuracy.

AbstractWe redetermined the rotational and the chlorine-35 and nitrogen-14 nuclear quadrupole coupling constants of 3-chloropyridine. The values are A = 5839.5330(12) MHz, B = 1604.1875(6) MHz, and C = 1258.3121 (5) MHz for the rotational constants, and χaa(Cl) = - 72.255(19) MHz, χbb(Cl) = + 38.500(13) MHz, χcc(Cl) = + 33.755(23) MHz and χaa(N) = - 0.009(13) MHz, χbb(N) = - 3.473(10) MHz, χCC(N) = + 3.482(16) MHz for the chlorine-35 and nitrogen-14 nuclear quadrupole coupling constants, respectively.Application of double resonance modulation technique is shown to greatly simplify the assign­ment of hyperfine structure components even of weak rotational transitions.

Abstract The 14N hyperfine structure in the rotational spectra of cyclopropylamine and cyclopropyl cyanide has been reinvestigated by microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy. The observed quadrupole coupling constants in units of MHz are: Xaa = 2.3338(18), Xbb = 1.7874(20), Xcc = −4.1209(20) for cyclopropylamine and Xaa = −3.4536(35), Xbb= 1.7468(51), Xcc= 1.7068(51) for cyclopropyl cyanide.

Abstract The complicated nuclear quadrupole hyperfine structure and methyl torsional fine structure in the rotational spectra of N,N-dimethylformamide and N-nitrosodimethylamine have been studied using microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy. It has been found that both molecules are rather similar in terms of their parameters of methyl group internal rotation as well as in terms of their amino nitrogen quadrupole coupling constants.

Abstract We reinvestigated by microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy the rotational spectra of the axial and equatorial isotopomers of piperidine and N-deutero piperidine. The rotational, centrifugal, and nitrogen quadrupole coupling constants were improved, the deuterium quadrupole coupling constants were determined. The principal coupling tensor elements for nitrogen were estimated.

AbstractBy simple examples it is shown how fine structures in rotational spectra of free molecules can be used to analyse nuclear quadrupole coupling. It is demonstrated that microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy is an adequate tool for these studies. Examples for different nuclei illustrate the present possibilities

The rotational spectra of the 32S-, 34S- and 33S-isotopomers of thiophene have been studied in their natural abundances using microwave Fourier transform spectroscopy. For the 32S-isotopomer the rotational and centrifugal distortion constants were found to be A' = 8041.59407(46) MHz, B' = 5418.26219(17) MHz, C' = 3235.78061(16) MHz, D'J = 0.6967(96) kHz, D'JK = 0.530(14) kHz, D'K = 1.789(49) kHz, δ'K = 0.3067(21) kHz, R'6 = - 0.0738(12) kHz. For the 34S-isotopomer A' = 8041.7055(84) MHz, B'= 5274.1837(23) MHz, C' = 3183.8432(23) MHz, and for the 33S-isotopomer A'= 8041.651 (10) MHz, B' = 5344.2988(15) MHz, C' = 3209.25777(66) MHz with almost the same centrifugal distortion constants were obtained. The 33S-quadrupole coupling constants of the 33S-thiophene are χaa = 6.8610(64) MHz and χbb - χcc = -48.766(11) MHz.
