The analysis of ab initio charge distributions in cyclohexane and selected methylcyclohexanes indicates that no effect other than that described by the relationship δC = −237.1 qC + 242.64 between C-13 chemical shifts and C net charges (as determined for the alkanes) contributes to any significant extent to the shielding of the carbon atoms. This is no longer true for cyclopropane.

The comparison of adiabatic ionization potentials of normal and branched alkanes with carbon net charges indicates a lowering of the i.p.'s with increasing electron population of the electron-richest pair of bonded C—C atoms in the molecules. In terms of "inductive charges", it is found that n = −4.4083, i.e., precisely the same ordering of charges previously determined from l3C n.m.r. shifts. The relative C charges can thus be calculated from 13C chemical shifts and used in the equation [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] one half the sum of charge on the pair of electron-richest bonded C atoms, to give i.p.'s with a standard error of 0.044 eV. The relevance of these charges with respect to carbon 1s binding energies is discussed.

The involvement of excited configurations in Mulliken charge analyses is examined for ethylene and acetylene, using an optimized 4-31G basis. The net charges of carbon, −346.4 × 10−3 (C2H4) and −335.3 × 10−3 e (C2H2) at the SCF level, are reduced to −269.9 × 10−3 and −271.2 × 10−3 e, respectively. Double excitations appear to contribute little to these corrections. In acetylene, three single σ → σ* type excitations are responsible for ~83% of the charge correction whereas, as expected, the role of π → π* type excitations is small. Similarly, four σ → σ* configurations account for ~76% of the correction in ethylene. These effects are particularly important in comparisons with alkanes, whose charges are relatively little affected by CI corrections. Theoretical charges obtained from CI calculations appear to converge toward their empirical counterparts in a generalization of Mulliken's scheme, which allows for an uneven partitioning of CH overlap populations. Keywords: charge density, configuration interaction.

An analysis of the molecular energy in terms of bond contributions indicates that the latter (εij) can be approximated by a linear combination of the changes in net charges qi and qj. From the equation ΔH(atomization) = ∑εij, and the relationship between 13C chemical nmr shifts and C net charges, it is then possible to derive a two-parameter equation, ΔHf0 = ΔHf0(C2H6) + ν(N–2) + λ∑(Ncc + 1)δeth, which enables the calculation of enthalpies of formation of alkanes CNH2N+2 from 13C nmr shifts (δeth = shift relative to ethane, Ncc = number of CC bonds formed by the C atom whose shift is δeth).
