Abstract
Rotational spectra of the 4-fluoroacetophenone monomer and its monohydrate were investigated by Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy complemented with quantum chemical calculations. One conformer of 4-fluoroacetophenone and two isomers of 4-fluoroacetophenone-H2O have been observed in the pulsed jets. The observation of all mono-substituted 13C isotopologues in natural abundance allows an accurate structural determination of the 4-fluoroacetophenone monomer. Both detected isomers of 4-fluoroacetophenone-H2O are stabilized by a dominant O-H⋯O and a secondary C-H⋯O hydrogen bond. The fluorination effects on the geometries, intermolecular non-covalent interactions and V3 barrier of the methyl internal rotation were analysed. The relative population ratio of the two observed isomers for 4-fluoroacetophenone-H2O was also estimated to be NI/NII ≈ 7/1.

Abstract
The rotational spectrum of the 1 : 1 benzaldehyde-formaldehyde complex has been investigated by pulsed jet Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy combined with ab initio calculations. The two most stable isomers were observed, with the relative abundance ratio NI/NII≈ 3/1 estimated with intensity measurements. Both observed isomers are stabilized by one dominating O[double bond, length as m-dash]CO tetrel bond (n →π* interaction) and one secondary C-HO hydrogen bond. Natural bond orbital analysis and electron localization function analysis were applied to characterize the nature of the noncovalent interactions in the target complex.

Abstract
Diadamantyl ether (DAE, C20 H30 O) represents a good model to study the interplay between London dispersion and hydrogen-bond interactions. By using broadband rotational spectroscopy, an accurate experimental structure of the diadamantyl ether monomer is obtained and its aggregates with water and a variety of aliphatic alcohols of increasing size are analyzed. In the monomer, C-H⋅⋅⋅H-C London dispersion attractions between the two adamantyl subunits further stabilize its structure. Water and the alcohol partners bind to diadamantyl ether through hydrogen bonding and non-covalent Owater/alcohol ⋅⋅⋅H-CDAE and C-Halcohol ⋅⋅⋅H-CDAE interactions. Electrostatic contributions drive the stabilization of all the complexes, whereas London dispersion interactions become more pronounced with increasing size of the alcohol. Complexes with dominant dispersion contributions are significantly higher in energy and were not observed in the experiment. The results presented herein shed light on the first steps of microsolvation and aggregation of molecular complexes with London dispersion energy donor (DED) groups and the kind of interactions that control them.

Abstract
New atomic-level experimental data on the intermolecular non-covalent interactions between a common odorant and a relevant residue at odorant binding sites are reported. The preferred arrangements and binding interactions of fenchone, a common odorant and ethanol, a mimic of serine's side chain, have been unambiguously identified using a combination of high resolution rotational spectroscopy and computational methods. The observed conformers include homochiral (RR) and heterochiral (RS) conformers, with a slight preference for a heterochiral form, and exhibit primary OH-O hydrogen bonds between fenchone and ethanol. Secondary interactions play a key role in determining the relative configurations of fenchone and ethanol, and in shaping quite a flat potential energy surface, with many conformers close in energy and small barriers for interconversion.
