Gas-phase detection of HSOD and empirical equilibrium structure of oxadisulfane

We present the first gas phase spectra of singly deuterated oxadisulfane, HSOD, in its vibrational ground state. More than 100 transitions have been recorded with highest frequency accuracy using the Cologne Terahertz Spectrometer. The molecular parameters derived from a least squares fit analysis proof HSOD to be an almost accidental symmetric prolate top molecule with an asymmetry parameter kZK0.9985. Spectra of c-type and weaker b-type transitions have been recorded in the range from 716 to 772 GHz. The ratio of the dipole moments mc/mbZ2.4(3) has been derived from measured line intensities. The c-type transitions are split by the tunneling motion of a hindered internal rotation, whereas…

The rotational gas-phase spectrum of trans- and cis-HSSOH at 100GHz

Abstract We present the first pure rotational spectra of the two most stable conformers of oxatrisulfane, trans- and cis-HSSOH, in their vibrational ground state. For both conformers a-, b-, and c-type transitions have been recorded in the range from 75 to 120 GHz using an all solid-state spectrometer. More than 200 lines have been assigned for each conformer, most of them belonging to the r Q 2 - and the r Q 3 -branch of the perpendicular spectra. The least-squares fit analysis using a semirigid rotor Hamiltonian in S-reduction yields precise values for the ground-state rotational constants A 0 = 21 145.93422 ( 66 ) , B 0 = 4479.92301 ( 21 ) , C 0 = 3828.34269 ( 21 ) for cis-HSSOH, and A 0…
