Abstract

In this paper we review two theoretical approaches that illustrate the relationships between molecular (hyper)polarizabilities and bondlength alternation (BLA). In one approach, we employ sum-overstates calculations at the INDO-SDCI level on (CH_3)_2N-(CH=CH)_4-CHO, including an external, static, homogeneous electric field that unes the degree of ground-state polarization and BLA. In the second approach, we use a simple semiclassical model, wherein the mixing of valence bond (VB) and charge-transfer (CT) states along a BLA coordinate is treated. Qualitatively, the two approaches give very similar structure-property trends, that are consistent with experimental hyperpolarizability data on donor-acceptor polyenes. The agreement of the calculated trends reflects the importance of VB-CT energetics in determining them.
