Abstract
The first rotationally resolved observation of the infrared (IR) spectrum of the molecular complex C(3)H(4)-HCl in gas phase is reported. New IR spectra have been recorded at high resolution by means of a slit jet. Rotational constants and vibrational frequencies have been obtained from these spectra. These data are presented and compared with high level ab initio calculations (CCSD(T)/cc-pVTZ). The results obtained in this study are compared with those on acetylene and ethene-HCl complexes. We observe a broadening of the lines interpreted as a decrease of the lifetime of the excited vibrational state with the size of the partner of complexation and also a correlation between the vibrational shift of the H-Cl stretching mode and the proton affinity of the acceptor molecule.
