Nitrogen nqcc's in 3-fluoropyridine were first determined in 1976 by Sharma and Doraiswamy [1] and revisited in 2012 by van Eijk et al. [2].


 









Calculation of the nitrogen nqcc's was made here on a molecular structure given by B3P86/6-31G(3d,3p) optimization.  These are compared with the experimental nqcc's [2] in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Table 2, atomic coordinates in Table 3, rotational constants and centrifugal distortion constants in Table 4.


 








In Table 1, 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.


RMS is the root mean square differene between calculated and experimental nqcc's (percent of average experimental nqcc).  RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation of the model for calculation of the nqcc's.
