Abstract

A weakly bound complex of NH 3 and F 2 has been detected as a pre-reactive intermediate in mixtures of the component gases and characterised by means of its ground-state rotational spectrum. Chemical reaction of NH 3 and F 2 was precluded by using a fast-mixing nozzle in a Fourier-transform microwave spectrometer. Spectroscopic constants B 0, D J and D JK are reported for both symmetric-top isotopomers H 3 14N…F 2, and the 14N-nuclear quadrupole constant is given for the former species. The complex has a geometry H 3N…FF of C 3v symmetry, with r( N…F) = 2.708(7) A ̊ and the intermolecular force constant k σ = 4.69(3) N m −1.
