		in Silanone
	Calculation was made here of the deuterium nqcc tensors in silanone on the rmrho structure of Bogey et al. [1].  These are shown in Table 1.
	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.  The a-axis is coincident with the twofold symmetry axis.  The nqcc y-axis is chosen coincident with the inertia c-axis, which is perpendicular to the plane of the molecule.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.
	RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation for the B3LYP/6-31G(df,3p) model for calculation of the nqcc's, which may be taken as an estimate of the uncertainty in the calculated nqcc's.
