The variation in the longitudinal second hyperpolarizability (γ) in the bond-dissociation process of a homogeneous molecule ( H 2) is investigated by the finite-field (FF) approach using several ab initio molecular orbital (MO) and density functional (DF) methods. The most accurate methods (UCCSD or RCCSD) employed in this study show that the magnitude of γ value is remarkably enhanced in the intermediate dissociation region, which corresponds to the intermediate correlation regime. Such behavior suggests that the magnitudes of γ values for open-shell neutral compounds in the intermediate correlation regime are remarkably enhanced as compared to the usual closed-shell neutral systems.

The cycloaddition reaction mechanism between interstellar molecules ketenimine and HCN has been investigated employing the second-order M?ller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2) method in order to better understand the reactivity of nitrogenous cumulene ketenimine with carbon-nitrogen triple bond compound HCN. Geometry optimizations and vibrational analyses have been performed for the stationary points on the potential energy surfaces of the system. The calculated results show that it can be produced the five-membered cyclic carbene intermediates through pericyclic reaction processes between ketenimine and HCN. Through the following H-transfer processes, carbene intermediates can isomerize to the pyrazole and imidazole compounds, respectively. The present study is helpful to understand the formation of prebiotic species in interstellar space.
