The three observed bands displayed the rotational structure of a ⍀Јϭ7/2←⍀Љϭ9/2 transition and could be assigned as an excited-state progression in a single vibrational mode. The rotational constant BЉ and its change upon isotopic substitution in acetonitrile ͓CH 3 13 CN͔ was consistent with the assignment of the molecular carrier as the linear FeNC molecule. In analogy with the iron monohalides, which have electronic band systems in the same wavelength range, the transition can be described as a 4p←4s excitation. The derived structure is compared with that of other metal-containing cyanide/isocyanide molecules.
