Calculation of the nitrogen nqcc's in
isobutyronitrile was made on an approximate equilibrium molecular
structure derived ab initio by MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ
optimization with empirically corrected C-C and CN bond lengths.
These are compared with the experimental
nqcc's [1,2] in Table 1. Structure
parameters are given in Table 2, rotational constants in Table 3. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In Table 1, 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. The nqcc y-axis is chosen
coincident with the inertia b-axis, these are perpendicular to the
symmetry plane of the molecule. Ø (degrees) is the angle
between its subscripted parameters. ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz. |

RMS is the root mean square
difference between calculated and experimental nqcc's (percentage of
average experimental nqcc). RSD is the residual stand deviation
of calibration of the B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd) model for calculation of
the nqcc's. |
