Abstract
The torsional–rotational spectrum of CH2DOH has been investigated in order to gain fuller understanding of the internal rotation parameters as well as to provide molecular radio astronomers with a set of measured transition frequencies which can be used for an interstellar search for the molecule. a- and b-dipole transitions have been assigned within the three substates of the torsional ground state and c-dipole transitions have been assigned from the e1 to the o1 substate. The potential energy coefficient V1=12±1 cm−1 has been determined with V2 constrained to zero. Although the torsional wave functions are by no means sharp, the molecule does localize to symmetric and asymmetric forms.
