Microwave spectrum of methylene fluoride-d2, CD2F2 in the excited vibrational states

The rotational spectra of ¹²CD₂F₂ in the ν₂, ν₃, ν₄, 2ν₄, ν₅, ν₇, ν₈, and ν₉ states were observed and assigned. Weak Coriolis interactions between ν₃ and ν₇, ν₃ and ν₉, and ν₅ and ν₇ were analyzed using approximate expressions for the rotational energy levels. The resonance between the ν₂ and the ν₈ state was found much stronger, and an effective two-dimensional Hamiltonian with the Coriolis term in the off-diagonal block was set up to analyze the spectra. The effect of the Fermi resonance between ν₃ and 2ν₄ was found to be very small.The ground-state spectrum of ¹³CD₂F₂ was observed and the rotational constants and the centrifugal distortion constants were determined. The data on ¹²CD₂F₂ and ¹²CDHF₂ were also improved very much in accuracy.The Coriolis coupling constants and the differences between two vibrational levels in resonance, which were determined by the analysis of the satellite spectra, are in good agreement with those obtained from vibrational spectra, except for the ν₂ band center, which is revised to 1170.3 cm^?1. The force constants were also checked using the centrifugal distortion constants of ¹²CD₂F₂, ¹³CD₂F₂, and ¹²CHDF₂.
