Solvatochromism of 3-[2-(aryl)benzoxazol-5-yl]alanine derivatives

The photophysical properties of N-Boc-3-[2-(9-anthryl)benzoxazol-5-yl]-l-alanine methyl ester (BoxAnt) and N-Boc-3-[2-[4-(9′-(10′-butyl)anthryl)phenyl]benzoxazol-5-yl]-l-alanine methyl ester (BoxPhAnt) were studied in a series of solvents. Their absorption spectra are less sensitive to the solvent polarity than the corresponding fluorescence spectra which show a pronounced solvatochromic effect leading to large Stokes shifts. Using an efficient solvatochromic method, based on the empirical solvent polarity parameter , a large change of the dipole moment on excitation for BoxPhAnt has been found. From an analysis of the solvatochromic behaviour of the absorption and fluorescence spectra in terms of bulk solvent polarity functions, f(_r, n) and g(n), a larger excited-state dipole moment (about 8 D, ψ = 56) was obtained for BoxPhAnt than for BoxAnt (about 3 D, ψ = 0). Both applied methods gave similar values of the excited-state dipole moments for both compounds studied.     

偶极积分与Boys法分子轨道定域化

定域分子轨道在分子体系的化学图象和物理图象之间充当重要的桥梁作用,它的产生依赖于定域化准则,其中最普遍使用的是Foster-Boys和Edmiston-Ruedenberg(E—R)提出的两种定域化准则。这两种定域化准则是等价的,因而结果也是一致的。但对于E—R定域化来说,由于涉及到大量的多中心积分的计算,计算极为费时,因而远不如Foster-Boys定     

Charge calculations in molecular mechanics. IX. A general parameterisation of the scheme for saturated halogen,oxygen and nitrogen compounds

Summary The CHARGE2 program for the calculation of partial atomic charges has been amended to include bond parameters for a number of organic functional groups, including halogens, nitrogen and oxygen. These minor amendments to the original scheme produce dipole moments for the fluoro and chloro compounds which are in complete agreement with the observed values.The less complete data sets for the bromo and iodo compounds are also well reproduced, and the dipole moments of a variety of mixed halo compounds are now in better agreement with experiment than previously.The calculated dipole moments of the saturated nitrogen and oxygen compounds are now in much better agreement than in the original scheme, thus the revised parameterisation may be employed with confidence to predict the electrostatic energies of these compounds.Furthermore, the revised scheme now gives a precise proportionality between the charge on the proton in a CH group and the ¹H chemical shift of the corresponding proton, allowing the general prediction, in principle, of ¹H chemical shifts. In addition, attempts to include variable electronegativity in the effect are described for fluoro compounds.For part VIII see Ref. 1.     

Comparative studies of static dipole polarizabilities of ionic crystals on the basis of different self-consistent potentials

The static dipole polarizabilities, ^D , have been studied for the ions O^2–, F^–, Na⁺, Mg²⁺, Cl^–, K⁺ and Ca²⁺ in the crystals NaF, KF, NaCl, KC1, MgO and CaO. The starting zero-order wave functions have been generated using various exchange- and exchange-correlation potentials in order to study the effect of these potentials on ^D . The direct contribution to the dipole polarizability, _o ^D , has been determined by the uncoupled Hartree-Fock method. Self-consistency effects have been included by the geometric approximation. The crystal potential is incorporated using the Watson sphere model. Good agreement between theoretical and experimental results are found for those self-consistent potentials which exclude self-interaction.     

The relative importance of temperature and isotope effects on the dipole oscillator strength distribution of H2

Summary The calculation of the effects of temperature and isotopic composition on the energy weighted moments of the dipole oscillator strength distribution of H₂ in the random phase approximation to the polarization propagator are reported. It is seen that the effect of isotopic composition is small, while that of temperature is of an order accessible to experiment. We find that all the mean excitation energiesI , for =–1, 0, 1, decrease with temperature as does the dipole oscillator strength momentS() for >0, while the opposite is true for <0. These effects are interpreted in terms of the bond length dependence of the excitation energies.     

Dipole moments of some substituted benzaldehydes. Conformational preference of substituents ortho to the aldehyde group

The dipole moments of a number of substituted benzaldehydes are measured in benzene solution. The angle which the dipole axis of the CHO group makes with the axis of rotation of the group is determined. The observed moments of the ortho-substituted benzaldehydes are compared with the moments calculated for free rotation as well as fors-trans ands-cis orientations of the -CHO group.o-Fluorobenzaldehyde exists mostly in thes-trans conformation.o-Chloro-,o-bromo-ando-nitro-benzaldehydcs also exist in thes-trans conformation; their observed dipole moments are even lower than the values calculated fors-trans forms, indicating mutual induction of the ortho substituents. Though 2,5-dichlorobenzaldehyde is expected to have the same dipole moment as benzaldehyde, the observed moment is significantly lower due to mutual induction of the ortho substituents. 2,5-Dimethylbcnzaldehyde has, however, almost the same moment as benzaldehyde. The dipole moment ofo-methoxybcnzaldchyde is considerably higher than the values calculated for boths-cis ands-trans conformations. An explanation is given for this.o-Hydroxybenzaldehyde exists exclusively in thes-cis form due to internal H-bonding.     

Dipole moments ofα,ω-dibromoalkanes

Dipole moments for,-dibromoalkanes containing 10, 12, 14, 18, 20 and 24 carbon atoms were determined in benzene solution at 25.00±0.05 °C. The experimental values of the dipole moments were found to compare well with the theoretical values calculated from Hayman and Eliezer's theory.     

Medium-size polarized basis sets for high-level-correlated calculations of molecular electric properties

Summary The first-order polarized basis sets for the use in high-level-correlated investigations of molecular electric properties have been generated for Pb, Bi, Po, and At. The performance of the standard [10.17.14.5/13.11.8.2] and extended [20.17.14.9/13.11.8.4] basis sets has been examined in nonrelativistic and quasirelativistic calculations for atoms and simple closed-shell hydrides. The relativistic contributions to electric dipole properties of those systems have been evaluated by using the recently developed quasirelativistic scheme. The predicted dipole polarizability of At is in good agreement with the results of other relativistic calculations. The calculated quasirelativistic dipole moments of BiH₃ (–0.499 a.u.), PoH₂ (–0.207 a.u.), and AtH (+0.036 a.u.) involve a significant relativistic contribution which amounts to —0.230 a.u., –0.177 a.u., and –0.097 a.u., respectively. The basis set details append this paper. They are also available as a part of the basis set library of the MOLCAS system.     

Some rules forS(-2k) dipole sums?

Stieltjes conditions and the ratio test provide necessary but not sufficient conditions onS(-2k) dipole sums. If the dipole sums are accurate the associated [n, n –1] Padé approximant provides a better representation of (), the frequency-dependent dipole polarizability, than a truncated series expression and, in addition, should bound () below. It is shown how constraints on the dipole sums effect the form of the [2,1] Padé approximant and an additional constraint is derived that ensures the analyticity of the approximant on 0 < ₁. There then follows a discussion of the reliability of available literature dipole sum values for small molecules containing H, C, N and O.
