Abstract

Various methods, employing molecular orbital calculations of varying approximations, for evaluation of force fields of polyatomic molecules have been reviewed. Applications ofcndo/force method for the force field calculations are specially dealt with in detail because of its ease of operation and being economically more viable in terms of computer time. The calculated C=O stretching force constants for a series of organic molecules are shown to have linear relationship with substituent constants.
