in 4a,8a-Azaboranaphthalene


 








 








 








14N and 11B nqcc's in 4a,8a-azaboranaphthalene were determined by Pejlovas et al. [1],  which authors derived also a "best-fit" structure.  Calculation of the 14N and 11B nqcc tensors was made here on this best-fit molecular structure.  Calculated and experimental nqcc's are compared in Tables 1 and 2.  Structure parameters in Z-matrix formatb are given in Table 3.


 









Calculation of the 14N efg's/nqcc's was made with the B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd) and B3PW91/6-311+G(d,p) models, and 11B with the B1LYP/6-31G(df,p) model.

 









In Tables 1 and 2, subscripts a,b,c refer to the principal axes of the inertia tensor.  RMS is the root mean square difference between calculated and experimental diagonal nqcc's (percentage of the average of the magnitudes of the experimental nqcc's).  RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation model for calculation of nitrogen efg's/nqcc's.
