in Propiolamide


 








 








 


 





Calculation of the nitrogen nqcc's in propiolamide was made here on molecular structures given by HF/6-311++G(3df,3pd) and HF/aug-cc-pVTZ(G03) optimizations, with Cs symmetry assumed.  These are compared with the experimental nqcc's [1] in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Table 2, rotational constants 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.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.

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 of the B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd) model for calculation of nitrogen efg's/nqcc's.
