The SNO{sup −} and OSN{sup −} anions are shown in this work to be very stable negatively charged species in line with other recent work [T. Trabelsi et al., J. Chem. Phys. 143, 164301 (2015)]. Utilizing established quartic force field techniques, the structural and rovibrational data for these anions are produced. The SNO{sup −} anion is less linear and has weaker bonds than the corresponding neutral radical giving much smaller rotational constants. OSN{sup −} is largely unchanged in these regards with inclusion of the additional electron. The S–N bond is actually stronger, and the rotational constants of OSN{sup −} versus OSN are similar. The vibrational frequencies of SNO{sup −} are red-shifted from the radical while those in OSN{sup −} are mixed. OSN{sup −} has mixing of the stretching modes while the S–N and N–S stretches of SNO{sup −} are largely independent of one another. The ω{sub 3} stretches are much brighter in these anions than they are in the radicals, but the ω{sub 1} stretches are still the brightest.
