Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants

in Perfluorobutyryl Chloride


 







 
 
Calculations of the chlorine nqcc's in perfluorobutyryl chloride were made on structures given by MP2/6-311+G(d,p) and MP2/6-311+G(2d,p) optimization, each with ~re C-C, CF, and C=O, and CCl bond lengths.  These calculated nqcc's are shown 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.
