Abstract
By using the semiempirical time-dependent Hartree-Fock PM3 calculation s we have studied the frequency-dependent second- and third-order pola rizabilities of thiophene-, pyrrole-nitro polyene systems. The PM3 pre dicted limiting average second-order polarizabilities increase in the order: pyrrole-> furan-> thiophene-nitro polyene systems. The average and longitudinal third-order polarizabilties have the following order: pyrrole->thiophene->furan-nitro polyene systems. In these trends. we suggest that pyrrole group is the best donor group among the three pol yene systems.
