Abstract:Broadband microwave spectra of the isolated 2‐ethylthiazole molecule, and complexes of 2‐ethylthiazole···H2O and 2‐ethylthiazole···(H2O)2 have been recorded by probing a gaseous sample containing low concentrations of 2‐ethylthiazole and water within a carrier gas undergoing supersonic expansion. The identified conformer of the isolated 2‐ethylthiazole molecule and the 2‐ethylthiazole sub‐unit within each of 2‐ethylthiazole···H2O and 2‐ethylthiazole···(H2O)2 have C1 symmetry. The angle that defines rotation of… Show more
