Abstract

The microwave spectrum of chlorocyclobutane was reported in $1966^{a}$. We have measured the microwave spectrum of argon chlorocyclobutane as part of our on-going research on bonding and dynamics of four-membered ring containing van der Waals complexes. Preliminary results show that the four-membered ring remains puckered in the complex. An analysis based partially on the nuclear quadrupole coupling projections of the $^{35}Cl$ nucleus will be presented.
