Table 1:

Root-mean-square (rms) deviations from the global fit^a of transitions involving $v_{\rm t} = 0$ torsional energy levels of ¹³C₂-methyl formate (HCOO¹³CH₃).
Number of parameters				27
Number of lines				936
rms of the 936 MW $v_{\rm t}=0{-}0$ lines				0.0970 MHz
rms of the 454 A symmetry lines				0.1005 MHz
rms of the 482 E symmetry lines				0.0937 MHz

^a Parameter values are given in Table 2. The complete list of observed minus calculated residuals of $v_{\rm t} = 0$ lines are given in Supplementary Table A.1. ^b Sources of data: data come from the present work, the different instruments are described in Sect. 2.2. ^c Spectral range of the measurements. ^d Maximum J and $K_{\rm a}$ for each group of measurements. ^e Number of MW lines in each uncertainty group. ^f Uncertainty in MHz used in the fit. ^g Root mean square deviation in MHz for each group. ^h The accuracy of spectral measurements for the Lille backwardwave oscillators spectrometer is about 0.030 MHz for isolated lines but some lines are either blended or present a bad S/N ratio and therefore their measurement accuracy is taken as either 0.100 MHz or 0.200 MHz according to the broadening of the experimental line. ⁱ The accuracy of spectral measurements for the Oslo Stark spectrometer is about 0.100 MHz for isolated lines although they are considered with an experimental error of 0.150 MHz. When the lines are either blended or present a bad S/N ratio, their measurement accuracy is taken as 0.200 MHz. ^j The Lille spectrometer spectral ranges for these measurements are: 150-245 GHz, 320-350 GHz, 510-525 GHz and 580-661 GHz.
