Abstract
We observed ten pseudo a-type transitions in the E state of N-ethylacetamide (NEAA) using a Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. We found triplets caused by the coupling between the two methyl groups for the observed pseudo a-type transitions. Also, we succeeded in observing similar triplets for the 5 a-type Q-branch transitions, 20 b-type and 7 c-type transitions of the E state of NEAA. These observed triplets allowed us to determinate the potential barrier V3 to internal rotation of the ethyl-methyl group to be 1078 (12) cm−1. In addition, though the observed intensities of the c-type transitions in the A state were weak, the c-type transition in the E state were observed to be as intense as the b-type transitions of the E state. We explained in this paper the abnormal intensities of the c-type transitions and pseudo a-type transitions in the E state of NEAA.
我们使用傅立叶变换微波光谱仪观测到了 N-乙基乙酰胺(NEAA)E 态的十个伪 a 型跃迁。我们发现,在观测到的伪 a 型跃迁中,两个甲基之间的耦合引起了三连串。此外,我们还成功地观测到了 NEAA E 态的 5 个 a 型 Q 支转变、20 个 b 型转变和 7 个 c 型转变的类似三连串。通过这些观察到的三连串,我们确定了乙基甲基内旋转的势垒 V3 为 1078 (12) cm-1。此外,虽然在 A 态中观察到的 c 型转变强度很弱,但在 E 态中观察到的 c 型转变强度与 E 态的 b 型转变强度相当。我们在本文中解释了东北亚大气中 E 态 c 型转变和伪 a 型转变的异常强度。
