Abstract

Abstract Some rotational transitions of ethyl iodide, CH3CH2I, have been reinvestigated by microwave Fourier transform (MWFT) spectroscopy. The iodine hyperfine structure splittings were first ana lyzed using a direct diagonalization procedure of the complete quadrupole Hamiltonian matrix. The results of this analysis showed deviations from our measurements up to 60 kHz. A new analysis using additional spin rotation coupling matrix elements reproduces our measurements within the experi­mental error limit and decreases the standard deviation of the least squares fit from 28 kHz to only 4 kHz.
