Isolation of a Halogen-Bonded Complex Formed between Methane and Chlorine Monofluoride and Characterisation by Rotational Spectroscopy and Ab Initio Calculations

A halogen-bonded complex formed between methane and chlorine monofluoride has been isolated in the gas phase before the reaction between the components and has been characterised through its rotational spectrum, which is of the symmetric-top type but only exhibits <i>K</i> = 0 type trans...
