Molecular electric properties in electronic excited states: multipole moments and polarizabilities of H2O in the lowest1 B 1 and3 B 1 excited states

Summary The dipole and quadrupole moments and the dipole polarizability tensor components are calculated for the¹ B ₁ and³ B ₁ excited states of the water molecule by using the complete active space (CAS) SCF method and an extended basis set of atomic natural orbitals. The dipole moment in the lowest¹ B ₁ (0.640 a.u.) and³ B ₁ (0.416 a.u.) states is found to be antiparallel to that in the ground electronic state of H₂O. The shape of the quadrupole moment ellipsoid is significantly modified by the electronic excitation to both states investigated in this paper. All components of the excited state dipole polarizability tensor increase by about an order of magnitude compared to their values in the ground electronic state. The present results are used to discuss some aspects of intermolecular interactions involving molecules in their excited electronic states.     

Dipole moments,transition moments,oscillator strengths,radiative lifetimes,and overtone intensities for CH and CH+ as computed by quasi-degenerate many-body perturbation theory

The correlated, size-consistent, ab initio effective valence-shell dipole operator (μ^v) method is used to calculate dipole moments and transition dipole moments of the CH molecule and transition dipole moments of the CH⁺ ion as a function of internuclear distance. The dipole and transition dipole moments computed here compare well with those of other accurate ab initio methods. The transition dipole moments are then used to calculate oscillator strengths and radiative lifetimes for the A → X and B → A transitions of the CH⁺ ion and the A → X transition of the CH molecule. Comparisons are made with the best available theoretical and experimental lifetimes. Finally, the CH ground-state dipole moment function is used to evaluate overtone intensities and to examine simple models of the CH overtone intensities in polyatomic molecules.     

Synthesis and Structural Features of 1-Acyl-1-nitro-2-furyl(thienyl)ethenes

A one-stage synthesis of 1-acyl-1-nitro-2-furyl(thienyl)ethenes was developed and structural assessment of the products was performed by means of ¹H, IR, and UV spectroscopy and dipole moment measurements. The acetyl derivatives have Z configuration, and the benzoyl derivatives, E configuration. The UV and IR spectra, as well as the rather high dipole moments ( 5-6 D) point to an essential contribution in the structures of dipolar forms.     

Mass spectral study of N-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-N′-arylureas

The fragmentation pattern upon electron impact at 70 eV of several N-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)ureas as well as of the corresponding N′-aryl substituted is studied. The spectra examined contain the molecular ion peak in very low intensity and in some cases is absent, whereas the ion ArNCO is the base peak or one of the most prominent. The principal fragmentation pathway takes place via the [M---28]⁺ ion.     

Dipole moments. Structure and conformation of asymmetrically 4,5-substituted 1-(α-aroyloxyarylideneamino)-1,2,3-triazoles

The dipole moments of several asymmetrically 4,5-substituted 1-(α-aroyloxyarilideneamino)-1,2,3-triazoles, produced by oxidation of bis-aroylhydrazones of α-dicarbonyl compounds, were measured in benzene solution. The structure and the probable conformation of each of these compounds was determined by comparing their experimental and theoretical dipole moments. It has been found that when one of the substituents R₁ or R₂ is an aryl group, it is located at the 4-position of the triazole ring. Considering the conformation of the ester-imino function, it has been found to be the same as that of symmetrically substituted derivatives.     

Electric properties of the water molecule in 1A1, 1B1, and 3B1 electronic states: Refined CASSCF and CASPT2 calculations

Summary The dipole moments and dipole polarizabilities of the ¹A₁, ¹B₁, and ³B₁ electronic states of the water molecule have been calculated by using the CASSCF approach followed by the evaluation of the dynamic electron correlation contribution by the second-order perturbation scheme CASPT2. All calculations have been carried out in a specifically extended ANO basis set which accounts for the Rydberg character of the two excited states. In order to estimate the correctness and accuracy of the present data a scan over a variety of different active spaces for the CASSCF wave function has been made. The present results are superior to earlier CASSCF calculations, although their qualitative features remain essentially the same. The dipole moments in ¹B₁ and ³B₁ states are predicted to be about 0.49 a.u. and 0.33 a.u., respectively, and have the opposite orientation with respect to the ground state dipole moment. The dipole polarizability tensors of the excited states are characterized by high anisotropy and are dominated by the in-plane component perpendicular to the symmetry axis. All their components are found to be about an order of magnitude larger than those of the ground state polarizability tensor. The excitation energy dependence on the choice of the active orbital space in the CASSCF reference function is also considered and the analysis of the present data concludes in the concept of what is called the mutually compatible active spaces for the two states involved in excitation. All CASPT2 results are in good agreement with the results of recent calculations carried out in the framework of the open-shell coupled cluster formalism. This agreement confirms the high efficiency of the CASSCF/CASPT2 approach to the treatment of the electron correlation effects.

The spectroscopic characteristics of these new N-triazolyl-β-lactams are also discussed.     

350 MHz 1H NMR spectra,dipole moments and preferred conformation of 8,9-epoxy-6,7-dihydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-5-ones

350 MHz ¹H NMR spectra and dipole moments showed that in the preferred conformation of 8,9-epoxy-6,7-dihydro-5H-benzocyclohepten-5-one and its 1,4-dimethoxy derivative the oxirane ring takes a pseudo-axial position.     

Stark effect,polarizabilities and the electric dipole moment of heteronuclear diatomic molecules in 1Σ states

The theory of second-order Stark effect in ¹Σ states of heteronuclear diatomic molecules is thoroughly reviewed. The rigorous treatment given demonstrates that by introducing rotational, vibrational and electronic branch polarizabilities, the intrinsic character of the second-order Stark effect in diatomic molecules can be shown to be related more closely to polarizabilities than to dipole moments. The well-known expression for the Stark shift in ¹Σ levels which is dominated by the square of the dipole moment is only a crude, though sufficient approximation whenever large dipole moments are involved. For small dipole moments, however, this approximation is likely to fail, leading to an erroneous determination of such dipole moments. In the limiting case of negligible influence of the molecular rotation on the vibronic matrix elements, the arithmetic mean of the electronic branch polarizabilities turns out to be equal to the well-known static electronic polarizabilities α_∥ and α_⊥. The results are applied to the interpretation of the Stark splitting in the A¹Σ⁺, υ′ = 5, J′ = 1 level of ⁷LiH, recently determined by Stark quantum-beat spectroscopy.

Theory of molecular optoelectronics. IX. Calculation of χ(2) from theoretical hyperpolarizabilities for DAN

Components of the crystal quadratic susceptibility tensor χ⁽²⁾ for second-harmonic generation are calculated for the title compound, 4-(N, N-dimethylamino)-2-acetamido-nitrobenzene. Input data are the crystal structure and refractive indices and CNDO hyperpolarizabilities; two different sets of refractive indices give similar results. The calculations yield effective polarizabilities as well as both rigorous and anisotropic Lorentz local electric fields. Susceptibility components are close to 10 pm V^?1, rather smaller than those deduced experimentally and showing a weaker dependence on direction; Kleinman symmetry is mostly observed within 10%. Screened dipoledipole interactions using CNDO dipole moments amount to ?80 kJ mol^?1, implying permanent fields of 2 GV m^?1.     

Polarity and structure of 2-(1-methylbenzimidazol-2-yl)-1-phenyl- and -1,2-diphenyl-1-nitroethenes

Polarity of 2-(1-methylbenzimidazol-2-yl)-1-phenyl- and -1,2-diphenyl-1-nitroethenes was determined and their structure was studied using electronic and ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectroscopy, dipole moments measuring, XRD analysis, and quantum-chemical calculations. It was shown that the 2-(1-methylbenzimidazol-2-yl)-1-nitro-1-phenylethene has Z-configuration both in crystal and solution. The nitro group and benzimidazole substituent in its molecule are removed from the plane of the double bond. For 1,2-diphenyl-1-nitroethene E-structure is typical.

Ground states of molecules. 56. MNDO calculations for molecules containing sulfur

MNDO has been extended to sulfur, but without inclusion of 3d AO s. Calculations are reported for heats of formation, geometries, dipole moments, and ionization energies of a variety of sulfur-containing molecules. The average discrepancy between calculated and observed heats of formation is larger than for compounds of other elements, a difference probably due, at least partly, to the lower accuracy of the thermochemical data for sulfur compounds. The calculated dipole moments agree well with experiment as do the calculated ionization energies, except for those corresponding to ionization from sulfur “lone-pair” orbitals which are too high by ca. 1 eV, probably as a result of the neglect in NDDO of interactions between inner and valence shell orbitals. As in the case of other third-period elements, the calculated heats of formation of compounds of sulfur in its higher valence states (S^IV, S^VI) were too positive by large amounts, due presumably to the neglect of 3d AO s.     

MCSCF/MCLR Studies of potential energy surfaces,spectra, and properties of the X1A1 and a3B2 states of ozone

Potential energy surfaces, properties, and spectra of singlet (X¹A₁) and triplet (a³B₂) ozone are investigated by means of MCSCF /MCLR analytical response theory calculations. MCSCF analytical gradients and Hessians are used to locate equilibrium and transition-state structures and to obtain associated vibrational and rotational constants, infrared intensities, and dipole moments. By means of MC linear response functions, electronic excitation energies, and oscillator strengths, static and dynamic polarizabilities as well as dispersion (C₆) coefficients are obtained. Good agreement is achieved, in some cases within experimental error margins, for properties where experimental data are known. A very low IR intensity for triplet ozone is predicted.

Determination of the structure of 7-diethylamino-4-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one derivatives using two-dimensional heteronuclear chemical-shift correlated NMR techniques

¹H and¹³C NMR spectra of 7-diethylamino-4-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)-2H-1-benzopyran-2-one derivatives have been studied. The location of the substituent in the 1,2,3-triazole ring was determined by the 2D COLOC method. It was established that the H(3) and H(5) protons in the coumarin moiety experience anisotropic influence of the phenyl subsituent at the C(5) atom in the triazole ring.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Influence of the chemical composition and comonomer distribution on the dipole moments of 3,3-dimethyloxetane/tetrahydrofuran copolymers

Experimental values of the dipole moment ratio 〈μ₂〉/nm² and its temperature coefficient d ln 〈μ₂〉²/dT, where 〈μ₂〉 is the mean-square dipole moment of a chain with n skeletal bonds and m² is the mean square of the skeletal bond dipole moments, are reported for well-characterized random copolymers of 3,3-dimethyloxetane and tetrahydrofuran. The results are interpreted in terms of the rotational isomeric state theory in a manner consistent with that developed for the parent homopolymers. The theory gives a good account of the experimental results corresponding to copolymers in which the mole fraction of tetrahydrofuran lies in the range 0.11–0.89. It is found that whenever the copolymerization obeys Bernouillan statistics, the dipole moments are quite insensitive to the comonomer distribution. The theoretical analysis suggests, however, that the value of the dipole moment ratio of alternating copolymers of 3,3-dimethyloxetane and tetrehydrofuran should be near that of the parent homopolymer of lower polarity.     

A tandem of the Cornforth rearrangements of 4-(1,2,3-triazol-1-yl)iminomethyl-1,2,3-thiadiazole

The method for the synthesis of 5-(2,6-dimethylmorpholino)-1,2,3-thiadiazole-4-carbaldehyde was proposed. Its reaction with sodium 1-amino-4-(N-methyl)carbamoyl-1,2,3-triazol-5-olate proceeds through a tandem of the Cornforth rearrangements. The initially formed azomethine isomerizes into sodium 4"-(2,6-dimethylmorpholino)thiocarbonyl-4-(N-methyl)carbamoyl-1,1"-bis[1,2,3]triazolyl-5-olate, which then rearranges to give sodium 4-{N-[4-(2,6-dimethylmorpholinothiocarbonyl)-1,2,3-triazol-1-yl]carbamoyl}-1-methyl-1,2,3-triazol-5-olate.     

Theoretical Infrared Radiative Lifetimes for CO a3∏

INDO self-consistent-field method was employed to calculate the potential energy and dipole moment functions for the excited a³∏ state of CO. Vibrationally averaged dipole moments and infrared radiative lifetimes were then obtained from the dipole moment function and vibrational wave functions generated by solving numerically the Schrödinger equation for nuclear motions. The calculated dipole moment is 1.468 (expt'I 1.375 D) for ν=0, and decreases with increasing ν, as found experimentally. Calculated infrared radiative lifetimes, with experimental results in parentheses, are 13.5 (17.3, 19.0±5.9), 7.3 (7.8, 13.1±2.9), and 5.0 (4.7, 5.6±1.0) msec, respectively, for ν=1, 2, and 3. The polarity of calculated dipole moment is C⁺O^?, differing from that for the ground X¹∑⁺ state. The origin of this difference is found to be due to the delocalization of the 5a orbital in the a³∏ state.
