[a] Experimental energies are compared to theoretical predictions[ 27 , 50 ] of the low‐frequency VRT levels and tunneling splittings for (H2O)2. Values in parentheses denote the size of the interchange tunneling splitting. All values are given in cm−1. [b] Experimental results from previous gas phase studies.[ 29 , 31 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 ] [c] From this work.
