Hyperpolarizabilities of hydrogen-bonded complexes of phenol derivatives with ammonia: PM3 and ab initio studies

Polarizability and first hyperpolarizability values of the hydrogen-bonded complexes formed by nitrosubstituted phenols with ammonia have been calculated using PM3 and ab initio (STO-3G) methods. It has been shown that enhancement of the polarizability (Δα) as well as the first hyperpolarizability (Δβ) of the complex arises from the hydrogen bond interaction between the phenol derivative and ammonia.
