Abstract

My research interests during my doctoral years have been focused on high resolution rotational studies of molecules and weakly bound molecular complexes. Information on the molecular structure, internal motions and intermolecular interactions that can be obtained by applying suitable theoretical models to the analysis of these unusually complex spectra allows the determination and understanding of the driving forces involved in formation of the molecular complex. In this way, many types of non-covalent interactions have been characterized, from pure van der Waals interactions in complexes of rare gases to moderate-strength and weak hydrogen bonds (HBs) and to the most recent halogen bonds, pnicogen4 or chalcogen bonds. In this thesis, we first introduce the theory of rotational spectroscopy, including that of the asymmetrical rotor, the effects of centrifugal distortion, nuclear quadrupole coupling effects end those of internal motions In the second part, we introduce the experimental apparatuses that were used and related theoretical knowledge. In the third part, chloropentafluorobenzene (C6F5Cl) and bromopentafluorobenzene (C6F5Br) are chosen as case studies to investigate the effect of perfluorination on the molecular structure and electronic properties.In the fourth and fifth parts, we discuss the 1:1 complexes of acrolein-methanol and acrolein-ethanol. In chapter six to eight I report the results on the microwave detection and analysis of the 1:1 complexes of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) with water, methanol and ethanol, respectively, in the gas phase.
