Calculations of the 14N nqcc's in HNSiO was made on a molecular structure given by ropt(1) =  fc-ccsd(T)/cc-pV(T+d)Z optimization and ropt(2) = all-electron CCSD(T)/cc-pwCVQZ optimization [1].  These calculated nqcc's are compared with the experimental result 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, subscripts 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 plane of the molecule.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters. ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.
