The dipole moment of 1,2-dicarba-closo-dodecaborane is oriented with the positive end towards the carbon atoms as follows from measurements on phenyl derivatives with variable substituents. Towards the phenyl group, the substituent 1,2-C2B10H11 behaves as a weak electron acceptor.

The moments of a charge distribution provide a concise summary of the nature of that distribution. They are suitable for quantitative comparison of experimental charge densities with theoretical results. As many of the moments can be obtained by spectroscopic and dielectric methods, the comparison between techniques can serve as a calibration of experimental and theoretical charge densities. Conversely, since the full charge density is not accessible by the other experimental methods, the comparison provides an interpretation of the results of the complementary physical techniques. The electrostatic moments are of practical importance, as they occur in the expressions for intermolecular interactions and the lattice energies of crystals. The first electrostatic moment from X-rays was obtained by Stewart (1970), who calculated the dipole moment of uracil from the least-squares valence-shell populations of each of the constituent atoms of the molecule. Stewart’s value of 4.0 ± 1.3 D had a large experimental uncertainty, but is nevertheless close to the later result of 4.16 ± 0.4 D (Kulakowska et al. 1974), obtained from capacitance measurements of a solution in dioxane. The diffraction method has the advantage that it gives not only the magnitude but also the direction of the dipole moment. Gas-phase microwave measurements are also capable of providing all three components of the dipole moment, but only the magnitude is obtained from dielectric solution measurements. We will use an example as illustration. The dipole moment vector for formamide has been determined both by diffraction and microwave spectroscopy. As the diffraction experiment measures a continuous charge distribution, the moments derived are defined in terms of the method used for space partitioning, and are not necessarily equal. Nevertheless, the results from different techniques agree quite well. A comprehensive review on molecular electric moments from X-ray diffraction data has been published by Spackman (1992). Spackman points out that despite a large number of determinations of molecular dipole moments and a few determinations of molecular quadrupole moments, it is not yet widely accepted that diffraction methods lead to valid experimental values of the electrostatic moments.

The dipole moments of 13 derivatives of 4-pyridone were measured. Attempts to obtain a value for 4-pyridone were unsuccessful but a value of 6.O D is compatible with other evidence. Dipole moment and n.m.r, evidence indicated that for N-phenyl-4-pyridone the phenyl group is inductively electron-repelling (in contrast to that reported)1,2 for N-phenylpyrrole) and that the rings are probably collinear.

The electric dipole moments of some styrene and trans- and cis-stilbene oxides have been measured, in benzene. From these data some bond angles have been calculated and it has been deduced that in the styrene derivatives the phenyl group is in rapid interconversion about the bond with the triatomic ring.

ABSTRACTThe electric dipole moment in the ground (μg) and in the first excited singlet state (μe) of co-substituted acceptors in 4-dimethylamino-trans-styrenes (Z = P(S)Ph2 , P(O)Ph2 , SO2CH3 ) were determined by solvatochromic and thermochromic methods. The obtained values of μe and μg and the values for Z = CN and Z = NO 2 known from the literature [2] fulfill the linear relation between the dipole moments (μe or μg and the Hammett constants σp of the substituents. On pincreasing the electron-acceptor power of Z, μe grows faster than μg

The adiabatic three-dimensional potential energy surface and the corresponding dipole moment surface describing the ground electronic state of HN2+ (Χ1Σ+) are calculated at different levels of ab initio theory. The calculations cover the entire bound part of the potential up to its lowest dissociation channel including the isomerization barrier. Energies of all bound vibrational and low-lying ro-vibrational levels are determined in a fully variational procedure using the Suttcliffe-Tennyson Hamiltonian for triatomic molecules. They are in close agreement with the available experimental numbers. From the dipole moment function effective dipoles and transition moments are obtained for all the calculated vibrational and ro-vibrational states. Statistical tools such as the density of states or the nearest-neighbor level spacing distribution (NNSD) are applied to describe and analyse general patterns and characteristics of the energy and dipole results calculated for the massively large number of states of the strongly bound HN2+ ion and its deuterated isotopomer.

AbstractThe magnitude of the dipole moment at the Si-SiO2 interface resulting from partial charge transfer that takes place upon the formation of interface bonds has been calculated. The charge transfer occurs because of the difference in electronegativity between silicon atoms and SiO2 molecules which are present across the interface. Results obtained for (100) and (111) silicon substrates indicate that the magnitude of the interface dipole moment is dependent on substrate orientation and the interface chemistry. Dipole moments at the Si-SiO2 and gate-SiO2 interfaces should be included in the definition of the flatband voltage VFB of MOS structures. CV-based measurements of the metal-semiconductor workfunction difference φms on (100) and (111) silicon oxidized in dry oxygen and metallized with Al agree with the predictions of this model. Other types of interface dipoles and their processing dependence are briefly discussed.
