Millimeter Wave Spectrum of Styrene Oxide C8H8O — •Pascal Stahl1, Arenas Benjamin2, Sergio Domingos2, Guido W.

We investigated the astrochemically-relevant, chiral molecule styrene oxide C8H8O and analysed the rotational spectrum of its ground state. Chirped-pulse Fourier-transform microwave and millimeter-wave spectroscopy and frequency modulation absorption spectroscopy was applied to record spectra in the region of 2 GHz to 330 GHz. Spectral analysis produced a set of precise rotational constants and centrifugal distortion constants up to the sextic order. Our accurate predictions of styrene oxide into the (sub-)millimetre range are necessary for radio astronomy searches. In addition, we assigned the spectra of all singly-substituted 13C and the 18O isotopologues, which allowed us to investigate the gas-phase structure of the molecule.
