Nitrogen


Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants


in 2-Cyanofuran


 


















Calculation of the nitrogen nqcc tensor in 2-cyanofuran was made here on molecular structures given by B3P86/6-31G(3d,3p) and MP2/6-311+G(3df,3pd) optimization, the latter with corrected CN bond length.  These calculated nqcc's are compared with experimental values in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Z-matrix format in Table 2, rotational constants in Table 3.

 








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.  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 (percent of average experimental nqcc).  RSD is the residual standard deviation of calibration of the B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd) model for calculation of the efg's/nqcc's.
