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.

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.

The rotational spectrum of ethyl acetylene has been investigated between 70 and 320 GHz. A Coriolis interaction has been found between the first excited state of the methyl torsion and the C - C = C in plane deformation. Splittings of transitions in the first excited torsional state show that the barrier hindering internal rotation of the methyl group amounts to 3271 cal/mole.

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.

The rotational spectrum of the ClS2 free radical in the gaseous phase has been observed in the millimetre- and submillimetre-wave regions. The ClS2 radical was generated by a dc glow discharge in either S2Cl2 or SCl2. Both a- and b-type R-branch transitions, most of which were split into two fine structure components, were detected for both of the 35Cl and 37Cl isotopic species in the ground vibronic state. As expected from the small hyperfine interaction constants reported by an electron spin resonance (ESR) study, the hyperfine structure was resolved for none of the transitions observed in the present study. Analysis of the observed transition frequencies yielded rotational and centrifugal distortion constants and also spin–rotation interaction constants with their centrifugal corrections. The spin–rotation interaction constants obtained in the present study were consistent with g values of the ESR study. The rotational constants of the two isotopic species led to the structure parameters r(S—S) = 1.906 (7) Å, r(S—Cl) = 2.071 (5) Å, and θ(SSCl) = 110.3 (4)°. A harmonic force field was derived from the observed centrifugal distortion constants and inertial defects combined with the ν1 frequency reported in literature on electronic spectroscopy. This harmonic force field yielded the ν2 and ν3 frequencies (445 (21) and 213.0 (2) cm−1, respectively, for 35ClS2), which differed considerably from the values reported previously.

Abstract We investigated the rotational spectrum of 32S, 33S dimethyl disulfide in natural abundance by molecular beam Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy. We were able to determine the com­plete 33S quadrupole coupling tensor, the rotational and centrifugal distortion constants and the internal rotation parameters of the two methyl tops. The rotational constants were found to be A = 8113.8847(23) MHz, B = 2800.6203(30) MHz and C = 2557.2245 (32) MHz. The results are compared with former publications.

Abstract The rotational spectra of the two abundant isomers of monothioformic acid, cis- and trans- HC(:O)SH, have been assigned in the frequency region 8 -250 GHz. Over 90 a-type transitions and over 60 b-type transitions have been measured for each rotamer. The a-type transitions belong to the qRK , qQ1, qQ2, qQ3 and qQ4 branches and the b-type absorption lines encompass the Ka = 1 - 0, 2 - 1, 3 - 2, 4 - 3 and 5 - 4 rotational sub-bands. The rotational constants and all quartic and sextic centrifugal distortion constants have been determined for each rotamer using Watson's reduced Hamiltonian. In addition to the measured line positions the frequencies of some selected low-J transitions, not observed in this work but of potential astrophysical interest, have been listed as an aid in the interstellar search for monothioformic acid.

AbstractThe pure rotational spectrum of sulfur trioxide has been observed for the first time. A total of 25 high-J transitions could be assigned. The rotational constants, two quartic centrifugal distortion constants, and three sextic centrifugal distortion constants were determined as: B= 10 449.0667(23) MHz, C = 5216.0330(12) MHz, DJ = 9.2651 (18) kHz, DJK = -16.3922(18) kHz, HJ, = -8.8(34) • 10-3 Hz, HJK= -15.8(73) • 10-3 Hz, and HKJ = 34.2(73) • 10-3 Hz. An r0- and an re -structure are presented: r0= 1.4198(7) Å (calculated from B), r0 = 1.4210(7) Å (calculated from C), and re = 1.4175 Å
