C6F5Br




























 









Bromine


Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants


in Bromopentafluorobenzene


 








 








 


 





Bromine nqcc tensors in C6F5Br were calculated here on an ropt molecular structure given by  PBE1PBE/6-31G(3d,3p) optimization.  These are shown below in Table 1.  Structure parameters are compared with C6H5Br in Table 3.  Rotational constants are given in Table 4.


 








In Table 1, subscripts a,b,c refer to principal axes of the inertia tensors.  ETA = (Xbb - Xcc)/Xaa = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz, where x,y,z refer to principal axes of the nqcc tensor.  RSD is the residual standard deviation of calibration of the B1LYP/TZV(3df,3p) model for calculation of the efg's/nqcc's.
