Chlorine


Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants


in 1,4-Dichlorobenzene


 







 
 
Chlorine nqcc's in 1,4-dichlorobenzene were calculated on the B3P86/6-31G(3d,3p) optimized molecular structure.  The results are given in Table 1.  Structure parameters and atomic coordinates respectively are given in Tables 2 and 3.
 
In Table 1, RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation for the B1LYP/TZV(3df,2p) model for calculation of the chlorine nqcc's.  Subscripts a,b,c refer to the principal axes of the inertia tensor.  ETA =  (Xbb - Xcc)/Xaa = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.
