			Calibration of the
			B3PW91/6-311+G(df,pd)
			model
			This is the recommended model, calibration statistics for which are shown below.
			Calibration was made by linear regression analysis of calculated electric field gradients vs experimental nuclear quadrupole coupling constants.  Calculations of the field gradients were made on the experimental structures of the following molecules:
			N2 NO+ PN CN HCN FCN ClCN BrCN HCCCN HCCNC CH3CN CH3NC CF3CN CF3NC SiH3CN GeH3CN FCCCN AlNC NCCP CNCN CH2(CN)2 CH2CHCN CH3CH2CN NCCNO NNO ClNO CH2NOH DNO3 HNCO CH2NH BH2NH2 NH3 NF3 (CH3)3N Pyrrole Pyridine Pyridine-N-O Benzonitrile Pyrimidine Oxazole Thiazole Pyrazole Imidazole Furazan
