Abstract
The rotational spectrum of trifluoroacetic acid has been recorded at room temperature in the 18–26 GHz frequency range using a chirped-pulse Fourier transform microwave (CP-FTMW) spectrometer. More than 180 new spectral lines have been identified and assigned to transitions within the vibrational ground state. A global fitting has been performed by incorporating spectroscopic data from previous studies, leading to the refinement of the molecular parameters. Two fitting models using Watson’s -reduction and -reduction are proposed, allowing the determination of for the first model and , , and for the second one.
