The dipole moment components of propynol were measured using the molecular Stark effect on a Fourier transform microwave (FTMW) spectrometer at NIST, Gaithersburg. Additional high frequency microwave transitions were measured using a Stark cell spectrometer.

25. Several separate microwave searches have been performed to identify transitions from a second conformer (expected to be the trans conformation). These measurements have used Stark cell spectrometers [Refs. 21, 22, and J. C. Pearson (private communication)], a FTMW spectrometer (Ref. 22), and the EROS. No transitions that can be assigned to a second conformation have been found.
26. Many of the molecules previously studied by high-resolution molecular-beam spectroscopy do not meet the single bright-state criterion. In particular, the high barrier to methyl group internal rotation produces an overlapping spectrum of the noninteracting A and E symmetry states (Ref. 10).
