Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants


in Methylsilylchloride


 








 








 








Chlorine nqcc's in methylsilylchloride were determine by Zeil et al. [1].  Tam et al. [2] derived a rmrho structure.

 








Calculation was made of the Cl nqcc's on the rmrho structure.  These are compared with the experimental nqcc's in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Table 2.

 








In Table 1, subscripts a,b,c refer to the principal axes of the inertia tensor; x,y,z to the principal axes of the nqcc tensor.  The nqcc y-axis is chosen coincident with the inertia c-axis, these are perpendicular to the molecular symmetry plane.  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 (percent of the average of the magnitudes of the experimental nqcc's).  RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation for the B1LYP/TZV(3df,2p) model for calculation of the chlorine nqcc's.
