Abstract
The potential energy surfaces of the nitroso compounds CClF2NO and CCl2FNO in the ground and lowest excited singlet and triplet electronic states were studied by various ab initio methods (including multiconfigurational methods). The equilibrium geometric parameters, vibrational frequencies, internal rotation potential functions, and rotational contours of bands in the S1 ← S0 vibronic spectrum of the CClF2NO molecule were calculated. For the molecules under consideration, the quantum-mechanical problem on torsional motion was solved. The results of calculations are, on the whole, in good agreement with experiment.
