Calculation was made here of
the Nitrogen nqcc tensors in both gauche
and trans conformers of
CH3-O-CH2CN on approximate
equilibrium (~re) molecular structures given by
(1) MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ
optimization with empirically corrected CC and CN bond
lengths,
and (2) MP2/6-311+G(3df,3pd)
optimization also with empirically corrected CC and CN bond
lengths.
These calculated nqcc tensors are given in
Tables 1 and 2. Structure parameters are given in
Table 3, rotational constants and dipole moments in
Table 4. |

Note: Egauche < Etrans by 6.7 kJ/mol for calculation
at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level on the optimized molecular structures, and
by 6.6 kJ/mole for calculation at the MP2/6-311+G(3df,3pd) level on the
optimized structures. |

Below, in Tables 1 and 2,
subscripts a,b,c refer to
principal axes of the inertia tensor; x,y,z to principal axes
of the nqcc tensor.
Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted
parameters. ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz. |
|
|
RSD is the calibration residual
standard deviation of
the B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd) model for calculation of the nqcc's. |
