in 1,2-Diiodobenzene


 








 








 








Iodine nqcc tensors were calculated here on an optimized molecular structure given by PBE1PBE method in conjunction with 6-31G(3d,3p) bases for C and H, and 6-311G(3d) for I.  These calculated nqcc's are given in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Table 2,  rotational constants and dipole moments in Table 3.

 








In Tables 1 - 3, subscripts a,b,c refer to principal axes of the inertia tensor; x,y,z to the principal axes of nqcc tensor.  The principal y-axis is chosen coincident with the inertia c-axis, these are perpendicular to the plane of the molecule.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.  RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation for the B1LYP/6-311G(df,p) model for calculation of the nqcc's, which may be taken as an estimate of the uncertainties in calculated nqcc's (notwithstanding uncertainities in the optimized structure).
