Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants


in Chlorine Nitrate


 







 
Calculation of the Cl and N nqcc's in chlorine nitrate was made on the ed + mw structure of Casper et al. [1].  These are shown in Tables 1 and 2 along with the experimental Cl nqcc's of Butler et al. [2].
 
In Tables 1 and 2, 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 model for calculation of the nqcc's.
