Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants

in gauche-3-Cyanopropene


 








 


 




Calculation of the nitrogen nqcc tensor was made here on a molecular structure given by MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ(G03) with ~re bond lenghts for C-C, C=C, and CN.  These calculated nqcc's are given  in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Table 2, rotational constants in Table 3.
 
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.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.
RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation of the B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd) model for calculation of the nqcc's, which may be taken as an estimate of the uncertainty in the calculated nqcc's.
