The Microwave Spectrum of15N-Difluoroacetonitrile: Electric Dipole Moment and Partial r0-Structure

Abstract
The rotational spectrum of15N-difluoroacetonitrile has been investigated in the frequency range from 8 to 18 GHz. From the measured lines with J up to 20, rotational constants and quartic centrifugal distortion constants have been determined. For some lines the Stark effect has been examined, yielding the components of the electric dipole moment along the a- and c-principal axes of inertia. The obtained rotational constants were also used together with the rotational constants of the normal isotopomer to derive a partial restructure of the molecule
