Calculation of the 14N nqcc tensor in tert-Butyl isothiocyanate was made here on an ropt molecular structure given by  B3LYP/6-311+G(3df,3pd) optimization.  Calculated nqcc's are given in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Table 2, rotational constants and electric dipole moments 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.  The nqcc x-axis is chosen coincident with the inertia b-axis, these are perpendicular to the molecular plane.  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 nitrogen efg's/nqcc's.
