Abstract
The pure rotational Raman spectrum of cyclopropane was observed up to J = 43. Interpretation of the spectrum required the calculation of an effective value for K for each rotational line because the K structure of the lines was not resolved. Methods of calculating the effective value of K are discussed. The values of three ground state rotational constants derived from this study are, in wavenumber units ($cm^{-1}$); $B_{O} = 0.6702_{8}\;D_{J} = 1.0 \times 10^{-6}$, and $D_{JK} = -1.3 \times 10^{-6}$.
