in Chloroferrocene


 








 








 








Calculation of the Cl nqcc tensors in chloroferrocene was made on an ro structure derived by Drouin et al. [1].  (Structure parameters, derived from atomic coordinates given in Table III of ref. [1], are given here in Z-matrix format.)  These are compared with experimental nqcc's [1,2] in Tables 1 and 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 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/TZV(3df,2p) model for calculation of the chlorine nqcc's.
