Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants


in Fluoroiodomethane



 









 









Calculation of the 127I nqcc tensor in fluoroiodomethane was made here on molecular structures given by MP2/6-311+G(d,p), MP2/6-311+G(2d,p), and MP2/6-311G(3d,3p) optimizations; and on these same structures but with empirically corrected re CF and CH bond lengths.  These nqccs are compared with the experimental values [1,2] in Tables 1 - 6.  Structure parameters are given in Table 7, rotational constants in Table 8.


 









In Tables 1 - 3, subscripts a,b,c refer to the principal axes of the inertia tensor; 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.  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 uncertainty in the calculated nqcc's.
