✦ Synopsis


A weakly bound complex of NH 3 and F 2 has been detected as a pre-reactive intermediate in mixtures of the component gases and characterised by means of its ground-state rotational spectrum. Chemical reaction of NH 3 and F 2 was precluded by using a fast-mixing nozzle in a Fourier-transform microwave spectrometer. Spectroscopic constants B o, Dj and D~r are reported for both symmetric-top isotopomers H 3 R4N...F2 and H 3 nSN...F2, and the 14N-nuclear quadrupole coupling constant is given for the former species. The complex has a geometry H3N...F-F of C3v symmetry, with r(N...F) = 2.708(7) A and the intermolecular force constant k,~ = 4.69(3) N m-i.

Previously only thermolyses at T 2 130'C had been investigated [3a,c]. [S] The spectroscopic characterization of 13 was carried out in an admixture with 7 and 12; the assignments ofthe skeletal atoms were based on the values for the corresponding 1-adamantyl compound, which was isolated in the pure
