“…The V 6 parameter was not determinable from the current ground state data set, and the reduced barrier height, s = 33.57, is very similar to s = 33.68 from fit to only the cm-wave data [2]. It is also interesting to note that the three internal rotation-overall rotation distortion constants are currently very similar to those for pyruvic acid, D Jm = 0.1524(15), D Km = À0.4570(54), d m = 0.0730 (16), all in MHz [10], suggesting that the underlying effects in both molecules are very similar.…”
