Abstract
Rotational spectra for two isotopomers of chloroferrocene were measured using pulsed-beam Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy. Transitions were observed for (35)Cl and (37)Cl isotopomers in the 4-10 GHz range. Chlorine quadrupole coupling strengths and rotational constants were obtained from the data. The rotational constants and quadrupole coupling strengths for (35)Cl are A = 1370.009(8) MHz, B = 767.342(1) MHz, C = 634.8834(6) MHz, eQq(aa)() = -9.06(4) MHz, and eQq(bb)() = -28.43(6) MHz and for (37)Cl are A = 1362.23(2) MHz, B = 751.623(2) MHz, C = 622.324(1) MHz, eQq(aa)() = -8.78(18) MHz, and eQq(bb)() = -20.76(9) MHz. These measured rotational constants were used to determine the following structural parameters of chloroferrocene: r(Fe-(C(5)H(5))) = 1.594(20) Ă , r(Fe-(C(5)H(4)Cl)) = 1.699(13) Ă , r(C-Cl) =1.7204(9) Ă , and r(C-C) = 1.4329(7) Ă . No evidence for internal rotation was observed in the microwave spectrum.
