RESUMO
Enhancement of the σ-hole on the halogen atom of aryl halides due to perfluorination of the ring is demonstrated by use of the Extended Townes-Dailey (ETD) model coupled to a Natural Atomic Orbital Bond analysis on two perfluorinated aryl halides (C6F5Cl and C6F5Br) and their hydrogenated counterparts. The ETD analysis, which quantifies the halogen p-orbitals populations, relies on the nuclear quadrupole coupling constants which in this work are accurately determined experimentally from the rotational spectra. The rotational spectra investigated by Fourier-transform microwave spectroscopy performed in supersonic expansion are reported for the parent species of C6F5Cl and C6F5Br and their 13C, 37Cl or 81Br substituted isotopologues observed in natural abundance. The experimentally determined rotational constants combined with theoretical data at the MP2/aug-cc-pVTZ level provide precise structural information from which an elongation of the ring along its symmetry axis due to perfluorination is proved.
RESUMO
The purpose of the current study was to explore resilience in senior-level baccalaureate nursing students. Twenty-seven participants completed an online questionnaire assessing three stressors that pertained to marriage or divorce, death or loss of family members or close friends, and extreme financial hardship in the past 1 year. Resilience was measured using the 25-item Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale (CD-RISC-25) and one open-ended question about the experience of resilience. Mean CD-RISC-25 score was 73.26 (SD = 10.7; range = 45 to 96); only 33.3% of the sample was considered resilient (score >80). Qualitative data described academic stressors and support resources for resilience. Study findings underscore the relevance of resilience in nursing students. Nurse educators must help nursing students develop resilience to better prepare them for academic success and ensure a smooth transition into their professional nursing role.

The microwave spectra of four isotopologues of the CHClF(2)-HCCH dimer have been measured and used to determine the structure of the complex. An initial scan over the 7-18 GHz region using the chirped-pulse microwave spectrometer at the University of Virginia provided initial assignments of the (35)Cl and (37)Cl isotopologues, with two additional H(13)C(13)CH species assigned using the resonant cavity Balle-Flygare microwave spectrometer at Eastern Illinois University. For the most abundant isotopologue, the rotational constants and quadrupole coupling constants are: A = 3301.21(4) MHz, B = 1353.4268(19) MHz, C = 1153.7351(18) MHz, χ(aa) = 34.681(12) MHz, χ(bb) = -69.70(3) MHz, χ(cc) = 35.02(2) MHz and χ(ab) = -8.8(3) MHz, in good agreement with ab initio calculations at the MP2/6-311++G(2d,2p) level. The alignment of CHClF(2) with respect to acetylene reveals a C-Hπ interaction, with a secondary C-ClH-C interaction also present between the two monomers. The fitted distance between the CHClF(2) hydrogen atom and the center of the triple bond is 2.730(6) Å, the distance between the chlorine atom and the acetylenic hydrogen is 3.061(38) Å, and the C-Hπ angle is 148.2(6)°. In addition, the centrifugal distortion constants give an estimate of the binding energy for the weak interaction of about 4.9(5) kJ mol(-1), in reasonable agreement with several similar complexes.
