The Microwave Spectrum of Ethyl Acetate and Allyl Acetate — •Ha Vinh Lam Nguyen — Institute of Physical Chemistry, RWTH Aachen University, 52056 Aachen, Germany

Fourier transform microwave spectroscopic studies on ethyl acetate and allyl acetate in a molecular beam will be presented.

In the case of ethyl acetate the spectrum of the trans conformer has been completely assigned. The rotational and centrifugal distortion constants as well as the barriers to internal rotation of both methyl groups have been determined.

Allyl acetate is currently under study. First results on the structure and internal dynamics of this molecule will be reported.

The experimental data of both molecules will be compared with the results of ab initio calculations.
