Tóm tắt

The microwave spectrum of chlorocyclopentane has been reinvestigated. The ground state and two vibrationally excited states of the equatorial conformation of c-C5H935Cl have been identified. The ground state rotational constants are A=6424.51(14) MHz, B=1832.304(6) MHz, C=1523.163(5) MHz. The spectrum of the 37Cl substituted species has also been assigned. For the previously reported axial conformer of c-C5H935Cl, additional transitions have been measured in the ground state and the first excited state of the lowest frequency motion and the spectrum of another vibrationally excited state has been assigned. The experimental rotational constants have been used to derive plausible molecular structures for both conformers. The experimental quadrupole coupling constants are compatible with the proposed structures.
