in 3,5-Dichloropyridine


 







 
 
Calculation was made of the nitrogen and chlorine nqcc tensors in 3,5-dichloropyridine on a molecular structure given by B3P86/6-31G(3d,3p) optimization.  These are shown in Tables 1 - 2.  Structure parameters are given in Table 3, atomic coordinates in Table 4, and rotational constants in Table 5.
 
In Tables 1 - 2, subscripts a,b,c refer to the principal axes of the inertia tensor; x,y,z to the principal axes of the nqcc tensor.  The nqcc y-axis is chosen coincident with the inertia c-axis, these are perpendicular to the molecular plane.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.  RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation of the model for calculation of the nqcc's.
