Deuterium nqcc's in both syn and gauche forms of CH2=CH(SeD) were determined by Petitprez et al. [1].
 
syn gauche
 
 
Calculations of the deuterium nqcc tensors were made here on ropt molecular structures given by MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ optimization.  These are compared with the experimental nqcc's in Tables 1 and 2.  Structure parameters are given in Table 3, rotational constants in Table 4.

 


 




In Tables 1 and 2, subscripts a,b,c refer to the principal axes of the inertia tensor, subscripts x,y,z to the principal axes of the nqcc tensor.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters. ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.
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 for the model for calculation of the nqcc's.
