The microwave rotational spectra of 2,3,4- and 2,4,5-trifluorotoluenes, along with all 13C isotopic species in natural abundance, have been recorded in the frequency range 8–27 GHz employing pulsed-jet Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy. The analysis of the spectra in the lowest torsional state has yielded the rotational constants, centrifugal distortion constants, three-fold barrier to methyl rotation, and the direction of the internal rotation axis in the moment of inertia principal axes systems of these trifluorotoluenes. For both molecules, the molecular constants of their eight isotopologues have been used to obtain the substitution rs structures of the ring and the methyl-carbon. The potential barriers hindering the internal rotation of the methyl top in 2,3,4- and 2,4,5-trifluorotluene are 2.5878(80) and 2.2809(23) kJ/mol, respectively.

Abstract We have performed an investigation of the internal rotation of the methyl group in trans-cis ethyl vinyl ether by using molecular beam-Fourier transform Microwave (MB-FTMW) spectroscopy. Rotational spectra (up to J = 20) were recorded in the frequency region 4-19 GHz. Due to the internal rotation of the methyl group, some rotational transitions were split and the torsional barrier could be determined to V3 (CH3) = 1074.4(4) cm-1 .

With 1-butyne a series of barrier determinations from rotational spectra in the torsional ground state of ethyl compounds was continued. The barrier is different to the value from an analysis of the rotational spectrum of the first torsional state.

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.

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.

AbstractMicrowave Fourier transform spectroscopy was used to reinvestigate the rotational spectra of cisand trans-2,3-dimethyloxirane. The potential barriers hindering the internal rotation, internal rotation parameters, and partial rs-structures were determined.
