Abstract Microwave spectra and hyperfine structure of 2-bromobutane (sec-butyl bromide, CH3CHBrCH2CH3) were measured in the frequency range of 8-18 GHz by a chirped-pulse and a resonant cavity Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. The complete nuclear quadrupole coupling tensors of bromine (χ) were obtained for the gauche+ (G+), anti (A), and gauche− (G−) conformers with 79Br and 81Br isotopologues, respectively. Rotational constants, centrifugal distortion constants, nuclear quadrupole coupling constants were determined for each species. Isotopic substitution made it possible to determine rs structure coordinates for Br atom of all conformers, and they are in good agreement with ab initio principal axis coordinates. In addition, the quadrupolar angles (θza) of 2-bromobutane are also compared with calculated values.
