Abstract: | The microwave spectra of 4-thiacyclohexanone in the ground state and eight vibrationally excited states have been studied in the frequency region 18.0–40.0 GHz and the corresponding rotational constants have been determined. The following values of the ground-state rotational constants (MHz) were obtained from the analysis of the a-type transitions: A = 3935.149 (0.031), B = 1829.444 (0.001), and C = 1364.609 (0.001). Analysis of the Stark effect gives for the dipole components (in Debye units) μa = 1.409 (0.002), μc = 0.391 (0.064). These data are consistent with a chair conformation for the ring. A phisically reasonable set of structural parameters which reproduce the ground-state rotational constants has been derived. A qualitative estimate of the low-frequency vibrational modes was obtained from relative-intensity measurements. The lowest vibrational frequency is believed to be a ring-bending mode and it occurs at 77 ± 22 cm?1 while the ring-twisting mode is at 204 ± 27 cm?1. |
