The transition frequencies were taken
from

1981, Chem. Phys. Lett., 82, 492.
This is the lowest energy conformer, which exhibits
a hydrogen bond from the alcoholic hydroxyl H atom
to the O atom of the carbonyl group.
With one additional, sextic, distortion parameter,
all lines could be used in the fit. Almost all of the
lines fit exceedingly well, such that few larger
deviations were interpreted as 100 kHz typographical
errors. Predictions with uncertainties larger than
0.5 MHz should be viewed with caution.
The dipole moment components were determined in (1).
