Abstract:
DFT(B3LYP, B3PW91) calculations in conjunction with three different basis sets have been utilized to investigate the variations in the bond lengths, dipole moment, rotational constants, IR frequencies, IR intensities and rotational invariants of ClCCCN. The nuclear quadrupole constants of chlorine ((35)Cl, (37)Cl) and nitrogen ((14)N) of ClCCCN have been calculated on the experimental r(s) structure as well as on the B3PW91/6-311++g(d,p) optimized geometry and were found to be within the scale length of the experimental uncertainty. The slope and intercept obtained from the regression analysis between the B3LYP/6-311++g(d,p) level calculated and experimental B(o) values of ClCCCN were used to calculate reasonable values of rotational constants of all the rare isotopic species of ClCCCN having standard deviation +/-0.048 MHz. All the spectroscopic parameters obtained from DFT calculations show satisfactory agreement with the available experimental data.

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
