The microwave spectrum of nitrosyl fluoride, NOF, has been reinvestigated in the microwave region and extended into the millimeter wave region. Some 80 transitions, consisting of both ``a''hyphen; and ``b''hyphen;type transitions, have been measured and assigned. These data provide the information required for a centrifugal distortion analysis which yields the following groundhyphen;state rotational parameters (megacycles per second):Aequals;95thinsp;189.77,Bequals;11thinsp;844.12,Cequals;10thinsp;508.31,tgr;xxxxequals;minus;0.099630,tgr;zzzzequals;minus;15.586926,tgr;xxzzequals;0.418629,tgr;xzxzequals;minus;0.289581,HJKequals;2.339times;10minus;6andHKJequals;minus;4.946times;10minus;5.Combination of infrared data and microwave data yields the following quadratic potential constants millidynes per angstron,fr1equals;2.09,thinsp;thinsp;fr2equals;15.08,thinsp;thinsp;fagr;sol;d2equals;1.08,thinsp;thinsp;fr1r2equals;1.85,thinsp;thinsp;fr1agr;sol;dequals;0.17.Herefr1andfr2are the Nhyphen;F and Nhyphen;O bond force constants, respectively, andfagr;is the bondhyphen;bending force constant.
