a

For references, see Table 1.

b

Experimental data from Fe(NO)(dtcEt2)2.

c

Assignment of experimental values based on assignment of isomer shifts, Table 4.

d

BS state exhibits two positive and two negative ΔEQ, therefore averaging is performed over the absolute value.

e

Only one reported experimental value, but the two nonequivalent centers are compared individually.

f

Mean absolute errors were computed based on absolute values of quadrupole splittings.
