Calculation of the iodine nqcc tensor in the GA conformer of 1-iodobutane was made on a molecular structures obtained by MP2/6-311+G(d,p) and MP2/6-311+G(3df,3pd) optimization.  These calculated nqcc's are compared with the experimental values of Arsenault et al. [1] in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Table 2, rotational constants in Table 3.

 








In Table 1, subscripts a,b,c refer to the principal axes of the inertia tensor, subscripts x,y,z to the principal axes of the nqcc tensor.  Øz,CI (degrees) is the angle the z-principal axis makes with the CI bond axis.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.

RMS is the root mean square difference between calculated and experimental diagonal nqcc's (percent of the average of the magnitudes of the experimental nqcc's).  RSD is the residual standard deviation of calibration of the B1LYP/6-311G(df,p) model for calculation of the efg's/nqcc's.
