Abstract
Mid-infrared spectra of protonated methylamine, CH$_3$NH$_3^+$, and ethylamine, C$_2$H$_5$NH$_3^+$, have been recorded using the FELion ion trap
connected to the Free Electron Laser for Infrared eXperiments (FELIX; Radboud University, Nijmegen, The Netherlands)
employing infrared photodissociation of the corresponding neon-clusters.
In addition, the pure rotational spectrum of CH$_3$NH$_3^+$ has been observed for the first time. Rotational transitions were observed
in the frequency region between 80 and 240\,GHz in
the Coltrap apparatus using the method of state-selective He-attachment.
In contrast to methylamine which features a complex CH$_3$-internal-rotation/NH$_2$-inversion spectrum,
its protonated variant CH$_3$NH$_3^+$ exhibits the spectrum of a simple symmetric rotor
in its ground vibrational state.
