Аннотация:Complete geometry optimizations of trans, Trans, trans, Trans, trans-, gauche, Trans, trans, Trans, trans-, trans, Trans, trans, Cis, trans-, and gauche, Trans, trans, Cis, trans-octa- 1,3,5,7-tetraenes were carried out at the RHF/6-31 G level. Characteristic changes in the geometry are found in going f rom the planar conformers of octatetraene to the corresponding higher-energy stable forms. The harmonic force constants were computed for the above conformers at the RHF/6-31 G//RHF/6-31 G level using analytical second derivatives. The computed force fields of these four molecules were then corrected using empirical scale factors transferred from trans-buta-1,3-diene. To account for the vibronic coupling effect, which may be a characteristic of oligoenes, a special scale factor was introduced for the two internal coordinates which correspond to stretching the central C=C double bonds. A complete assignment of the experimental spectra of t, T, t, T, t-octatetraene is also given.
