## Abstract A multiple perturbation method for the study of molecular reactivity following multiple site interactions has been extended to trimolecular systems. The theory is reformulated by the many‐body diagrammatic method. While adding no new physical content to the previous theory, the present

✦ Synopsis
A multrple perturbation method for the treatment of molecular reactivity IS gencrahzed to describe the simultaneous interaction of a molecule contaming several reactive sates with a second molecule and a pomt charge. The modificatron of the reactivity properties of the main molecule by electrostatrc mteraction, polarization, dispersion and correlatron correctlons due to the presence of the second molecule, is identified from the effect of these corrections on the Interaction energy with the point charge The decomposrtron of interaction energies inherent to the perturbation expansron facthtates this analysis. The method is applied to a simple molecule contaming two reactrve sites (formyl fluonde -HCOF), rnteractrng with HF at hydrogen-bond distances. The results are m very good agreement with super-molecule LCAO SCF calcuIatrons with gaussian basis functrons and mdrcate that the redist:rbutron of the electron density caused by the interactron of the two molecules is adequately represented by the perturbatron method.

The method of electrostatic potentials is generalized via a double perturbation theory to describe the simultaneous attack of a large molecule by two or more charged species. The interaction term is found to reprduce accurately the full "super-molecule" calculation. The scheme is illustrated by trea
