in 2-Chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene


 








 








 








Calculation of the chlorine nqcc tensors in 2-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene was made on a ropt and ~re molecular structures, where ropt is given by MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ(G03) optimization and ~re is ropt but with empirically corrected CCl, C-C, C=C, and CF bond lengths.   Calculated nqcc's are compared with the experimental results of Marshall et al. [1] in Tables 1 and 2.  Structure parameters are given in Table 3, rotational constants in Table 4.

 








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.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters.


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 efg's/nqcc's.
