Thermodynamic considerations suggest that the copper monohalides CuX should exist mainly as polymers in the gas phase, and indeed it proved difficult to obtain the monomers in sufficient abundance to detect spectroscopically. This problem was overcome by flowing the halogen gas over copper heated to 1100 K (E.1, Manson, F.e. de Lucia, and W. Gordy, f. Chem. Phys. 63, 2724 (1975)).
For CuBr the J = 13-14, 14-15, and 15-16 transitions occurred at 84 421.34, 90 449.25, and 96 476.72 MHz, respectively. Calculate the rotational constant and bond length of CuBr.
