abstract = {The recent astronomical observations of the simplest
aromatic nitrile benzonitrile, C$_6$H$_5$CN, followed by a
five-membered and a bicyclic CN-functionalized ring in TMC-1
have provided a significant impetus to the field for
searches of cyclic complex organic molecules in space. One
such example is 2,4,6-cycloheptatriene-1-carbonitrile, a
seven-membered ring with a -CN group attached to the sp$^3$
hybridized carbon atom. With a permanent electric dipole
moment of 4.3 D, this molecule is an excellent candidate for
laboratory rotational spectroscopy. In this study,
experiments were performed in the 2-8 GHz, 18-26 GHz and
75-110 GHz frequency ranges in a supersonic expansion setup
and a room temperature flow cell setup. The measurements
across the broad frequency range of 2-110 GHz have enabled
the identification and assignment of the vibronic ground
state, singly substituted rare-atom isotopologues, and
vibrationally excited states. Here, we report the precise
determination of the rotational constants, quartic
centrifugal distortion constants, nitrogen nuclear
quadrupole coupling constants, as well as molecular
structure in its vibronic ground state. The comprehensive
rotational spectroscopy study of this molecule, covering a
large frequency range, forms the basis for its future
astronomical detection and thus for extending the pool of
detected complex cyclic molecules.},
