A simple method has been developed to estimate the changes of bond distances and bond angles produced by the centrifugal force arising from rotational motions of molecules. The method has been applied to the PCl3 molecule and the predicted effect found to be small but significant in comparison to the effect of vibrational motion. The theoretical results for PCl3 at 300° and 505°K are in good agreement with experimental results from gaseous electron diffraction.
