Chlorine


Nuclear Quadrupole Coupling Constants


in Trichloroethylene


 







 
 
35Cl nqcc's in trichloroethylene were measured by Kisiel, Bialkowska-Jaworska, and Pszczólkowski [1].  Calculation of the nqcc's was made here on the ro and r* (rz) structures of Kisiel and Pszczólkowski [2].  These calculated nqcc's are compared with the experimental values in Tables 1-3.  Structure parameters are compared in Table 4.
 
In Tables 1-3, 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 nqcc's. 
 
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.
