Four-dimensional ab initio intermolecular potential energy surfaces (PESs) for CH{sub 3}F–He that explicitly incorporates dependence on the Q{sub 3} stretching normal mode of the CH{sub 3}F molecule and are parametrically dependent on the other averaged intramolecular coordinates have been calculated. Analytical three-dimensional PESs for v{sub 3}(CH{sub 3}F) = 0 and 1 are obtained by least-squares fitting the vibrationally averaged potentials to the Morse/Long-Range potential function form. With the 3D PESs, we employ Lanczos algorithm to calculate rovibrational levels of the dimer system. Following some re-assignments, the predicted transition frequencies are in good agreement with experimental microwave data for ortho-CH{sub 3}F, with the root-mean-square deviation of 0.042 cm{sup −1}. We then provide the first prediction of the infrared and microwave spectra for the para-CH{sub 3}F–He dimer. The calculated infrared band origin shifts associated with the ν{sub 3} fundamental of CH{sub 3}F are 0.039 and 0.069 cm{sup −1} for para-CH{sub 3}F–He and ortho-CH{sub 3}F–He, respectively.
