AbstractA large variety of molecules contain large amplitude motions (LAMs), inter alia internal rotation and inversion tunneling, resulting in tunneling splittings in their rotational spectrum. We will present the modern strategy to study LAMs using a combination of molecular jet Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy, spectral modeling, and quantum chemical calculations to characterize such systems by the analysis of their rotational spectra. This interplay is particularly successful in decoding complex spectra revealing LAMs and providing reference data for fundamental physics, astrochemistry, atmospheric/environmental chemistry and analytics, or fundamental researches in physical chemistry. Addressing experimental key aspects, a brief presentation on the two most popular types of state-of-the-art Fourier transform microwave spectrometer technology, i.e., pulsed supersonic jet expansion–based spectrometers employing narrow-band pulse or broad-band chirp excitation, will be given first. Secondly, the use of quantum chemistry as a supporting tool for rotational spectroscopy will be discussed with emphasis on conformational analysis. Several computer codes for fitting rotational spectra exhibiting fine structure arising from LAMs are discussed with their advantages and drawbacks. Furthermore, a number of examples will provide an overview on the wealth of information that can be drawn from the rotational spectra, leading to new insights into the molecular structure and dynamics. The focus will be on the interpretation of potential barriers and how LAMs can act as sensors within molecules to help us understand the molecular behavior in the laboratory and nature.

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.
