Molecular structure and harmonic force field of SbCl 3 by microwave spectroscopy
Abstract
The microwave spectrum of six isotopically substituted molecules of SbCl 3 in the frequency range 27-250 GHz has been investigated. Six rs structures were determined resulting in the following average values of the bond length and bond angle: r s(SbCl) = 2.3217 Å; θs(ClSbCl) = 97.19° The harmonic force field of SbCl 3 has been calculated using the vibrational frequencies, the mean amplitudes, and the centrifugal distortion constants.
