Characteristics of the ground electronic state of HNCO have been investigated theoretically in a series of eight ab initio analyses involving qualitative features of the electronic structure, the barrier to linearity, the NH(3Σ−)+CO fragmentation energy, the H–NCO bond dissociation energy, heats of formation of isomers of HNCO, fundamental vibrational frequencies and anharmonic force fields, the rovibrational spectrum of DNCO, and the precise Re structure of isocyanic acid. Sundry state‐of‐the‐art electronic structure methods were employed in the study, including restricted and unrestricted Hartree–Fock (RHF and UHF), complete‐active‐space self‐consistent‐field (CASSCF), configuration interaction singles and doubles (CISD), Mo/ller–Plesset perturbation theory through fourth and occasionally fifth order (MP2–MP5), coupled‐cluster singles and doubles (CCSD), and CCSD augmented by a perturbative contribution from connected triple excitations [CCSD(T)]. The one‐particle basis sets ranged in quality from (9s5p1d/4s2p1d) to (13s8p3d2f/6s5p3d2f ) on the heavy atoms and from (4s1p/2s1p) to (6s2p1d/4s2p1d) on hydrogen. Several revisions of thermochemical data are proposed, in particular, a larger barrier to linearity of 5.7(3) kcal mol−1, an enhanced bond energy of 85.4(10) kcal mol−1 for D0(NH–CO), and more reliable relative energies for the isomers of HNCO, viz., γe(HOCN)=25.5(10), γe(HCNO)=70(2), and γe(HONC)=84.5(15) kcal mol−1. In addition, the experimental value D0(H–NCO)=113.0(2) kcal mol−1 is confirmed. These results lead to several new proposals for heats of formation (ΔH°f,0, kcal mol−1): HNCO(−26.1), HOCN(−0.7), HCNO(+43.0), HONC (+57.6), and NCO(+35.3). A complete quartic force field has been constructed for HNCO by combining RHF third‐ and fourth‐derivative predictions with CCSD quadratic force constants subjected to the scaled quantum mechanical (SQM) optimization scheme.
This force field yields a set of ωi and χij vibrational constants which gives the following fundamental frequencies (with total anharmonicities in parentheses): ν1=3534(−186), ν2=2268(−45), ν3=1330(−9), ν4=778(−50), ν5=576(+9), and ν6=657(+21) cm−1, thus reproducing the observed band origins to 4 cm−1 or less. For DNCO the theoretical force field reveals misassignments of the low‐frequency bending vibrations and predicts ν4(a′)=727, ν5(a′)=458, and ν6(a″)=633 cm−1. Finally, the theoretical vibration–rotation interaction constants (αi) for five isotopic species of HNCO have been used in conjunction with empirical rotational constants and the Kraitchman equations to determine re(N–H)=1.0030(20) Å, re(N–C)=1.2145(6) Å, re(C–O)=1.1634(4) Å, θe(H–N–C)=123.34(20)°, and θe(N–C–O)=172.22(20)°.

Note from the data given in the caption of Fig. 3 that the inclusion of the 1s core orbitals in the sum actually reverses the sign of the net orbital energy first derivative, indicating an erroneous preference for cis bending.
145.
The directions of the shifts in the net atomic charges are confirmed by calculations using larger basis sets. For example, at the CISD optimum structures, the SCF net charges are linear, and and trans bent, and
146.
At the CISD geometry, the following RHF dipole moments (in D) are obtained: 2.344; 2.256; and 2.236. Moreover, the CCSD value is 2.154 D.
147.
The empirical estimate of is actually smaller than the corresponding fia component, at variance with the CISD prediction. To the degree that θ(H-N-C( is shifted toward linearity upon vibrational averaging, the equilibrium and values should be smaller and larger in magnitude, respectively, than the observed components. Thus zero-point vibrational effects may account for much of the disparity in the relative ordering of and

Experimental and values were employed for CO, and NH (Refs. 200, 221, and 152, respectively). For HNCO the observed fundamental frequencies appearing in Fig. 2 were utilized in conjunction with the anharmonic constants given in Table XIII (vide infra). For the and values were theoretical results from Ref. 216 except those which were affected by Fermi resonance. The remaining anharmonic constants and the fundamental frequencies of are experimental results (Refs. 157, 215).

From Ref. 211. The Raman fundamental frequencies of the cyanate anion in a host of solid KBr have been reported as and have been found in an argon matrix (Ref. 183). These data yield a ZPVE correction to the electron affinity of +0.024 eV, which is much less than the uncertainty quoted by Ref. 211. Thus the cited value of 3.6 eV is taken as the vibrationless electron affinity.

The C–N distances in the 6–31G** MP2 reference structures (Ref. 36) of HOCN and HONC are probably 0.02–0.03 Å too long, as gauged from analogous results for HCN. Deficiencies of this size are not present in the CISD geometry of HNCO. Thus geometry relaxation effects are likely to decrease the relative energies of HOCN and HONC and partially offset the basis set trends.

The observation of sizeable amounts of CN radicals in the shock-heated decomposition of HNCO in the 2500–3500 K region was attributed in Ref. 39 to the fragmentation of HOCN. The degree to which the pathway is competitive is unclear, however.

For example, the harmonic stretching frequency for is 3282.27 and those for are 3506 and 3577 (Ref. 157). The hydrogen stretching anharmonicities of some common species are: HF () (Ref. 152);
(Ref. 221);
(Ref. 157);
and (Ref. 212). Note that the value for HNCO given by the RHF//RHF procedure is significantly smaller than the SQM(CCSD)+RHF//expt. result, primarily due to the increased magnitude of the underlying force constant.
