Nitrogen 14 quadrupole coupling constants for H2CN(+) and HCN are predicted via ab initio self-consistent-field and configuration interaction theory. Effects of electron correlation, basis set completeness, and geometrical structure on the predicted electric field gradients are analyzed. The quadrupole coupling constant obtained for H2CN(+) is one order of magnitude less than in HCN, providing an explanation for the experimental fact that the fine structure of the microwave spectrum of H2CN(+) has not been resolved. This research also allows a reliable prediction of the nuclear quadrupole moment of N-14, namely Q(N-14) = 2.00 x 10 to the -26th sq cm.
