Abstract

A straightforward graph-theoretical approach to anticipating PM3 semiempirical molecular orbital π-polarizations for non-alternant monocycles and bicycles is described. This approach allows one to see the relationship between hydrocarbon structural relatives and their calculated polarities.

Keywords: Chemical graph theory; non-alternant hydrocarbon polarity; norgraphs; sipoles; PM3 calculations.
