Ab initio computational studies have been carried out for three molecules that are commonly classed as antiaromatic: cyclobutadiene (1), 1,3-diazacyclobutadiene (7), and 1,4-dihydropyrazine (6). Their dinitro and diamino derivatives were also investigated. Stabilizing or destabilizing energetic effects were quantified by means of the isodesmic reaction procedure at the MP2/6-31G*//HF/3-21G level, and calculated molecular electrostatic potentials (HF/STO-5G//HF/3-21G) were used as a probe of electron delocalization. Our results do not show extensive delocalization in the π systems of any one of the three parent molecules. The destabilization found for 1 and 7 is attributed primarily to strain and to repulsion between the localized π electrons in the C=C and C=N bonds, respectively. However, 6 is significantly stabilized, presumably due to limited delocalization of the nitrogen lone pairs. NH2 groups are highly stabilizing, apparently because of lone pair delocalization. NO2 is neither uniformly stabilizing nor destabilizing.

We present a modification of our bond increment method for the calculation of molecular electrostatic potentials and fields inside zeolite cavities. Introducing a variant of the Mulliken approximation for the off-diagonal matrix elements of the potential and optimizing the parameters of the modified formula, we achieved much better agreement with ab initio STO-3G minimal basis set results than with the original version. For a representative set of 10 small molecules the standard mean deviation between potentials calculated on the van der Waals surface with the ab initio and approximate methods is 9·1 kJ/mol. The relative error decreases from 21 to 9 per cent for the lone-pair regions of molecules modelling zeolite cavities. Applying the modified bond increment method for a realistic faujausite model we have found that the potential and field are almost exclusively of long-range origin. This means that, if using appropriate atomic charges, the monopole approximation gives correct results for electrostatic potentials and fields inside zeolite cavities.

Abstract It is shown that the concept of atomic charge in molecules is a useful tool in studying electrostatic potentials at the nuclei which in turn are closely related to a number of molecular properties. Calculations executed on a selected set of widely different compounds provide extensive evidence that the semiempirical SCC-MO (self-consistent charge) atomic charges are equally successful in this respect as the ab initio DZ ones.
