The conformational potential energy surface as a function of the two internal torsion angles in C-nitrosomethanol has been obtained using the semiempirical AM1 method. Optimized geometries are reported for the local minima on this surface and also for the corresponding points on the HF/6-31G, 6-31G\

✦ Synopsis
The vibrational Stark effect of a series of small molecules has been calculated by means of the semiempirical AM1 method through addition of the electron-field interaction term in the one-electron Hamiltonian. Optimized geometrical parameters along with harmonic frequencies and line intensities are determined for different strengths of the applied uniform electric field. The perturbed spectra are compared with theoretical studies carried out at the ab initio level and with experimental results. The vibrational Stark effect of the retinal molecule is also computed, showing that this kind of study is feasible in systems of biochemical interest. 0 1992 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc. *A contribution from the "Grup de Quimica Quantica de 1%stitut d'Estudis Catalans

The AM1 calculation was done for ortho-substituted toluenes (0-X-C,H,-CH,) and ortho-substituted tertbutylbenzenes (o-X-C&-t-Bu). The difference in the calculated heat of formation between o-X-C,H,-CH, and o-X-CJI,-t-Bu was used as a theoretical steric index for ortho-X. The correlation of this theo
