Sumario:This paper presents results from applying different point charge models to take into account intermolecular interactions to model the solid state effects on the 15 N NMR chemical shifts tensors. The DFT approach with the BLYP gradient corrected exchange correlation functional has been used because it can include electron correlation effects at a reasonable cost and is able to reproduce 15 N NMR chemical shifts with reasonable accuracy. The results obtained with the point charge models are compared with the experimental data and with results obtained using the cluster model, which includes explicitly neighboring molecular fragments. The results show that the point charge models can take into account solid state effects at a cost much lower than the cluster methods. © 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
