Conclusions 1. First rotational spectroscopic study of perfluorooctanonitrile 2. The size of the molecule is consistent with it being treated as a small cyanide terminated oligomer of PTFE. 3. Analysis yields insight into the perfluoro alkyl helix. Seven carbons completing a full quarter turn.

• Fourier transform rotational spectroscopy has been used to collect the spectrum of perfluooctanonitrile. The spectrum was weak and only one conformer was observed. The assigned spectrum currently consists of both a- and b-type transitions spanning J = 8 to 40. The rotational constants are small, A = 681. 37155(18) MHz, B = 126. 116097(48) MHz, and C = 124. 284824(49) MHz. The spectroscopic constants together with quantum chemical calculations have been used to identify the structure of the observed conformer. Notably the helical nature of the perfluoro alkyl chain is fully in evidence. Further calculations confirm that the nitrogen quadrupole coupling tensor is such that nitrogen hyperfine splitting will not be observable at the high J transitions recorded in our experiments. Spectroscopic constants and a discussion of the molecular structure will be presented.
