Abstract
Recent examples of complexes formed between hydrogen chloride and chlorofluoroethylenes have revealed unexpected and surprising structures. To the contrary, the analysis of the microwave rotational spectrum of 1-chloro-1-fluoroethylene-hydrogen chloride shows that it has the ``top binding to fluorine’’ structure typical of earlier dihaloethylene-HCl complexes. However, this result is not predicted by the MP2/6-311++G(2d, 2p) model chemistry on which we had been relying, even when corrected for basis set superposition error. The success of various model chemistries in predicting the experimental result is discussed.
