✦ Synopsis

Ab initio calculations using the STO-3G, 6-31G, and 6-31G * * basis sets are used to investigate charge distribution in tetracyclododecane alcohols. The calculated net atomic charges using fully optimized geometries indicate that certain carbon and hydrogen atoms in the proximity of a nonbonding oxygen lone pair are more negatively charged and the carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bonds are longer. Analysis of these charges and bond lengths as well as atomic orbital populations suggests that the differences between charge distribution on carbon and hydrogen atoms adjacent to the hydroxyl group and their corresponding carbon-carbon and carbon-hydrogen bond lengths can be explained in terms of hyperconjugation.

Ab initio shieldings for a number of methyl and ethyl phosphines agree well with experimental values. An increase of the intersubstituent angles generally causes a deshielding effect that may be understood in terms of a decrease of the HOMO-LUMO energy gap. However, ␣-, b-, and c-substituent effects
