in 3-Iodopropyne


 








 


 




127I nqcc's have been determined in 3-iodopropyne (propargyl iodide) by Ogata et al. [1], which authors also derived a partial ro structure.
 
Calculation of the nqcc's was made here on this structure, and on an "re" structure derived as discussed below.  These are compared with the experimental nqcc's in Tables 1 and 2.  Structure parameters are given in Table 3, rotational constants in Table 4.
 
In Tables 1 and 2, 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 diagonal nqcc's (percentage of the average of the magnitudes of the experimental nqcc's).  RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation for the B1LYP/6-311G(df,p) model for calculation of the nqcc's.

The "re" structure given in Table 2 was derived as follows:  The structure was optimized at the MP2 level of theory with aug-cc-pVTZ bases on C and H, and 6-311+G(d,p) basis on I.  The CC, single and triple, bond lengths were then corrected as discussed here.  For CI, the equilibrium bond length for CH3I [2] is used.
