“…On the other hand, advancements in gasphase spectroscopic techniques have extended their use to larger and flexible systems (such as clusters [30][31][32] , amino acids 33,34 , DNA-scaffold ribosugars 35 ) as well as to unstable species (obtained by flash vacuum pyrolysis 36,37 or discharge 38 ). Increasingly, complicated spectra have to be analyzed which strongly require theory for their interpretation 12,13,34,36,[39][40][41] . For isolated systems, rotational spectroscopy can serve to demonstrate the accuracy that can be reached by quantum chemistry and to show how much we need to push theory to obtain predictions useful to experiment.…”
