Popis: | The hyperpolarisabilities γ of nickel dithiolene complexes have been calculated by the finite field method in combination with the CNDO/S molecular orbital method. This computational technique, which has been developed for calculating the polarisation of large organic molecules by a perturbing electric field, is discussed. The changes in γ that occur as a result of different selections of substituent groups in the dithiolene ligand are described. The results are compared with recent experiments investigating these types of molecules. Large values for γ are found to arise from the interaction of the nickel 3d electrons with the conjugated π-electrons of the metal–ligand complex. |
