Abstract
Abstract The microwave spectrum of cis-crotyl alcohol is reported for the normal and -OD isotopic species. The assigned transitions are consistent with a hydrogen-bonded conformation having the oxygen atom skew with respect to the CC and the hydroxylic hydrogen gauche with respect to the CC bond. The valence angles CCC and OCC are a few degrees larger than in trans-crotyl alcohol. From measurements of Stark lobes displacements the electric dipole moment has also been determined. Analysis of the A-E doublings in the ground and some torsionally excited states allowed us to infer the potential energy surfaces of the methyl and skeletal torsions and to determine kinetic and potential energy interaction between the two motions through the use of a two-dimensional flexible model.
