Calculation of the nitrogen nqcc's was made here on a ropt molecular structure derived by B3LYP/6-31G(3d,3p) optimization, and on an reSE structure derived by Császár et al. [1].  These are compared with the experimental nqcc's [2] in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Z-matrix format in Table 2, ropt rotational constants in Tables 3.

 








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 nqcc y-axis is chosen coincident with the inertia c-axis, these are perpendicular to the symmetry plane of the molecule.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters. ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.

 








RMS is the root mean square difference between calculated and experimental nqcc's (percentage of average experimental nqcc).  RSD is the residual stand deviation of calibration of the B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd) model for calculation of the efg's/nqcc's.
