| Abstract: | Ab initio MP 2/4-31G ** calculations indicate that the most stable form of C3NH is bent and singlet and that the linear structure corresponds to a maximum. The effect of changing the CNH angle on the total energy is slight, but it is quite pronounced on the molecular polarity. The wider angle tends to increase the polarity of C3NH. MP 2/4-31G ** calculations predict a difference of polarity between linear and bent structures of 0.8 D. |
