Abstract
Thioformyl cyanide, HC(S)CN, and its deuterated isotopologue have been studied by high-level ab initio methods. Based on multidimensional potential energy surfaces including up to four-mode coupling terms and obtained from explicitly correlated coupled-cluster calculations, their geometrical parameters, vibrational transitions, rovibrational spectrum and spectroscopic constants have been studied in detail. The latter two properties, being obtained from vibrational configuration interaction theory (VCI) and vibrational perturbation theory (VPT), have been compared with available experimental data. The rotational and rovibrational spectra have been studied by rovibrational configuration interaction theory (RVCI) and colour coding has been used to obtain detailed insight into the rotational fine structure.
