AbstractSpangler and He [1,2] have shown that dithienyl polyenes form extremely stable bipolaronic dications when oxidatively doped in solution. Previous theoretical studies applied empirical methods to predict bipolaronic enhancement of hyperpolarizabilities for simple polyenes [3,4]. Here, we employ density functional theory to optimize the gas-phase molecular conformations of neutral, cationic, and dicationic forms of a series of dithienyl polyenes, where the number of ethene units, N, is varied from 1–5. Ab initio Hartree-Fock, generalized valence bond, configuration interaction, and Møller-Plesset calculations demonstrate that the dications are farily well described with a closed shell and therefore have little biradicaloid character. Second hyperpolarizabilities, γ, are subsequently calculated using ab initio Hartree-Fock theory and a finite field methodology. As expected, γ increases with the number of ethene units for a given molecular charge. The cations also show the largest increase in γ with N. For a given value of N, the cations display the largest γ values. However, if we treat the dication as a triplet, which might be present in solution, then it displays the largest γ.

Electrostatic Interpretation

Equations which determine the optimum form of paired-electron orbitals are derived. It is shown that for large nuclear separations these equations become the Hartree-Fock equa­tions for appropriate valence states of the separated atoms. An electrostatic interpretation of chemical bonding is developed using optimum paired-electron orbital functions. For these wave functions this simple procedure yields results identical with those obtained by the conventional method of calculation based on the Hamiltonian integral. Numerical computations by the electrostatic method are also discussed.

Consistency Effects

The Sternheimer shielding-antishielding functions ß(r) and γ(r) are reported for all the fourteen lanthanide atoms at the uncoupled Hartree-Fock level of theory. Each atom is considered in two valence state configurations, 4fn 5d0 and 4 fn-1 5d1, and the nonrelativistic HF wave functions have been used. The 5d1 configuration leads to a smaller net antishielding than the 4fn configuration by ~ 6-12% in the series. The electron-electron self consistency effects are found to be less than 5% in the series. The importance of the calculated antishielding functions in the antishielding theory of electric field gradients in noncubic metals is discussed.

The quantal theory of the continuous photo-electric absorption of radiation is briefly summarized, pàrticular attention being given to the alternative formulae available and to the accuracy to be expected in practical calculations. Detailed calculations are described for the photo-ionization cross-section of neon, a system for which it is understood that experimental data should be available in the near future. The calculation is made using Hartree-Fock wave functions and the two formulae of the dipole length and the dipole velocity. The corresponding cross-sections are found to be 5.8 and 4.4 x 10- 18 cm 2 . at the spectral head and to rise slowly with increasing frequency until a broad maximum is reached for an energy of the ejected electron of about 11 eV. A comparison is made with previous calculations on the elements from boron to neon ; the general trend of the results is discussed and improved estimates for boron and fluorine are given (10 x 10 -18 cm 2 . for boron and 4.3 x 10- 18 cm 2 . for fluorine at the spectral head).

The significant features of exchange symmetry are displayed by simple systems such as two identical, spinless fermions in a one-dimensional well with infinite walls. The conclusion is that the maxima of probability of the antisymmetrized wave function of these two fermions lie at the same positions as if a repulsive force (of unknown nature) was applied between these two fermions. This conclusion is combined with the solution of a mathematical problem dealing with the equilibrium of identical repulsive particles (of one or two kinds) on one or more spheres like neutrons and protons on nuclear shells. Such particles are at equilibrium only for specific numbers of particles and, in addition, if these particles lie on the vertices of regular polyhedra or their derivative polyhedra. Finally, this result leads to a pictorial representation of the structure of all closed shell nuclei. This representation could be used as a laboratory for determining nuclear properties and corresponding wave functions.
