Calculation of the nitrogen nqcc's in 2-fluoropyridine was made here on a molecular structure given by B3P86/6-31G(3d,3p) optimization.  These are compared with the experimental nqcc's [1] in Table 1.  Structure parameters are given in Table 2, atomic coordinates in Table 3, and rotational constants in Table 4.
 
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.  The nqcc y-axis is chosen coincident with the inertia c-axis, these are perpendicular to the molecular plane.  Ø (degrees) is the angle between its subscripted parameters.  ETA = (Xxx - Xyy)/Xzz.
RMS is the root mean square differene between calculated and experimental nqcc's (percent of average experimental nqcc).  RSD is the calibration residual standard deviation of the B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd) model for calculation of the nqcc's.
