Abstract

The ground-state rotational spectra of two isotopomers, (C4H8S)-S-32 ... HF and (C4H8S)-S-34 ... HF, of the tetrahydrothiophene ... HF complex have been analyzed to give rotational constants, centrifugal distortion constants and the H,F nuclear spin-nuclear spin coupling constant D-aa. These parameters are consistent with a dimer structure characterized by a distance r(S ... F)= 3.067(22) Angstrom, an angle of 88.28(29)degrees between the S ... F internuclear line and the line bisecting the CSC angle and an angle of deviation of the S ... F internuclear line from the CSC angle bisector plane of 1.64(75)degrees. The deviation from collinearity of the atoms S ... H-F has been found to be theta = 10.5(45)degrees. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
