in tg-3-Iodo-1,1,1-trifluorobutane


 








 


 




 
Calculation of the 127I nqcc tensor in tg-1-Iodo-3,3,3-trifluoropropane was made here on molecular structures given by MP2/6-311+G(d,p), MP2/6-311+G(2d,2p), MP2/6-311+G(3d,3p), and MP2/6-311+G(df,pd) optimizations; and on these same structures but with empirically corrected C-C, CF, and CH bond lengths.  These calculated nqcc's are compared with experimental values in Tables 1 - 4.  Structure parameters are given in Table 5, rotational constants in Table 6.
 
In Tables 1 - 4, subscripts a,b,c refer to the principal axes of the inertia tensor; x,y,z to the principal axes of the nqcc tensor.  Øz,CI (degrees) is the angle between the z- and CI bond axes.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.
RMS is the root mean square difference between calculated and experimental diagonal nqcc's (percent of the average of the absolute experimental nqcc's).  RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation of the B1LYP/6-311G(df,p) model for calculation of the nqcc's, which may be taken as an estimate of the uncertainty in the calculated nqcc's.
