The role of multipolar interactions in quenching free rotation in condensed phases is discussed, with particular attention paid to the HCl-SF6 system. The magnitude of these interactions is shown to be closely correlated with the dielectric loss of the solvent, and to be sufficient to explain at least partially the variations of linewidth in the HCl rotational spectrum.
