Millimeter-Wave and High-Resolution Infrared Spectroscopy of 3-Furonitrile
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The rotational spectrum of 3-furonitrile has been collected from 85 to 500 GHz, spanning the most intense rotational transitions observable at room temperature. The large dipole moment imparted by the nitrile substituent confers substantial intensity to the rotational spectrum, enabling the observation of over 5600 new rotational transitions. Combined with previously published transitions, the available data set was least-squares fit to partial-octic, distorted-rotor A- and S-reduced Hamiltonian models with low statistical uncertainty (σ fit < 0.031 MHz) for the ground vibrational state. Similar to its isomer 2-furonitrile, the two lowest-energy vibrationally excited states of 3-furonitrile (ν 17, ν 24 ), which correspond to the in-plane and out-of-plane nitrile bending vibrations, form an a- and b- axis Coriolis-coupled dyad. Rotationally resolved infrared transitions (30–600 cm –1 ) and over 4200 pure rotational transitions for both ν 17 and ν 24 were fit to a partial-octic, Coriolis-coupled, two-state Hamiltonian with low statistical uncertainty (σ fit rot < 0.045 MHz, σ fit IR < 6.1 MHz). The least-squares fitting of these vibrationally excited states provides their accurate and precise vibrational frequencies (ν 17 = 168.193 164 8 (67) cm –1 and ν 24 = 169.635 831 5 (77) cm –1 ) and seven Coriolis-coupling terms ( G a, G a J, G a K, F bc, F bc K, G b, and F ac ). The two fundamental states exhibit a notably small energy gap (1.442 667 (10) cm –1 ) and an inversion of the relative energies of ν 17 and ν 24 compared to those of the isomer 2-furonitrile. The rotational frequencies and spectroscopic constants of 3-furonitrile that we present herein provide a sufficient basis for conducting radioastronomical searches for this molecule across the majority of the frequency range available to current radiotelescopes.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
