Introduction Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are very stable organic lipophilic pollutants principally produced during incomplete combustion processes, oſten exhibiting high lev- els of toxicity, mutagenicity, and carcinogenicity to humans and/or other living creatures [15]. Since PAHs are ubiq- uitous contaminants, there is much interest in searching practical strategies for their identification and removal from environments. Generally, alkylated derivatives are found in prevalence in the environmental samples of PAHs [68]. Dimethylnaphthalenes (DMNs) are substituted PAHs of great environmental interest [915]. DMNs can exist as ten iso- meric forms (Figure 1): 1,2-DMN, 1,3-DMN, 1,4-DMN, 1,5- DMN, 1,6-DMN, 1,7-DMN, 1,8-DMN, 2,3-DMN, 2,6-DMN, and 2,7-DMN. It has been previously recognized that the enzymatic biodegradation of DMNs in aqueous media is strongly affected by the specific position of the methyl substituents [12]. Indeed the first-order biomass-normalized rate coefficient ( ) of DMNs varies within one order of mag- nitude, the ,-disubstituted isomers showing the maximum values along the series [12]. erefore, the detection of the DMN isomers in the environmental mixtures is of funda- mental importance from environmental and biochemical viewpoints. On the basis of experimental and theoretical investigations, the active site of the enzyme which controls the biodegradative mechanism is mainly characterized by hydrophobic residues [12, 13], involving contributions from dispersive and/or inductive forces in enzyme-substrate com- plex formation. is result has been corroborated by recent computational studies on the electronic polarizabilities () [14, 16] and Raman spectra [15] of alkylated-naphthalenes, the average polarizabilities [14], and summation of the Raman activities [15] of DMNs being found to be linearly related to the experimental values. However, although the average polarizabilities (⟨⟩) of DMNs regularly increase in the order ⟨⟩(,-DMNs) < ⟨⟩(,-DMNs) < ⟨⟩(,-DMNs), they slightly vary among the ten isomers (up to 3.5%). us, the average polarizability is little useful to discriminate unam- biguously the DMN isomers. A physicochemical property much more affected by the structural features is the electronic first-order hyperpolarizability () and the related nonlinear

1 Introduction

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are very stableorganic lipophilic pollutants principally produced duringincomplete combustion processes often exhibiting high lev-els of toxicity mutagenicity and carcinogenicity to humansandor other living creatures [1ndash5] Since PAHs are ubiq-uitous contaminants there is much interest in searchingpractical strategies for their identification and removal fromenvironments Generally alkylated derivatives are found inprevalence in the environmental samples of PAHs [6ndash8]Dimethylnaphthalenes (DMNs) are substituted PAHs of greatenvironmental interest [9ndash15] DMNs can exist as ten iso-meric forms (Figure 1) 12-DMN 13-DMN 14-DMN 15-DMN 16-DMN 17-DMN 18-DMN 23-DMN 26-DMNand 27-DMN It has been previously recognized that theenzymatic biodegradation of DMNs in aqueous media isstrongly affected by the specific position of the methylsubstituents [12] Indeed the first-order biomass-normalizedrate coefficient (119896119887) of DMNs varies within one order of mag-nitude the 120573120573-disubstituted isomers showing the maximum

119896119887 values along the series [12] Therefore the detection of theDMN isomers in the environmental mixtures is of funda-mental importance from environmental and biochemicalviewpoints On the basis of experimental and theoreticalinvestigations the active site of the enzyme which controlsthe biodegradative mechanism is mainly characterized byhydrophobic residues [12 13] involving contributions fromdispersive andor inductive forces in enzyme-substrate com-plex formation This result has been corroborated by recentcomputational studies on the electronic polarizabilities (120572)[14 16] and Raman spectra [15] of alkylated-naphthalenesthe average polarizabilities [14] and summation of theRamanactivities [15] of DMNs being found to be linearly related tothe experimental 119896119887 values However although the averagepolarizabilities (⟨120572⟩) of DMNs regularly increase in the order⟨120572⟩(120572120572-DMNs) lt ⟨120572⟩(120572120573-DMNs) lt ⟨120572⟩(120573120573-DMNs) theyslightly vary among the ten isomers (up to 35) Thus theaverage polarizability is little useful to discriminate unam-biguously the DMN isomers A physicochemical propertymuchmore affected by the structural features is the electronicfirst-order hyperpolarizability (120573) and the related nonlinear

optical (NLO) properties Second Harmonic Generation(SHG) and Electro-Optical Pockels Effect (EOPE) [17ndash32]SHGmeasurements are currently employed for the structuralidentification of biomolecules such as peptides and proteins[28ndash32]

Themain focus of this study is to determine the static andfrequency-dependent electronic 120572 and 120573 values of the seriesof the DMN isomers aiming to explore the effects of the posi-tion of the CH3 groups on these electric properties poten-tially helpful for the isomeric discrimination The electronic(hyper)polarizabilities are commonly predicted by means ofab initio andor Density Functional Theory (DFT) computa-tionsHowever aswell-known in the literature for an accuratedetermination of the electronic (hyper)polarizabilities thechoice of the functional is critical especially in the case of120587-conjugated compounds [33] In fact on the whole theconventional DFT methods tend to systematically overesti-mate the electronic (hyper)polarizabilities obtained by high-level correlated ab initio levels On the other hand the long-range corrected DFTmethods incorporating nonlocal effects[34 35] describe adequately the diffuse regions of the chargedistributions giving much more satisfactory performancesfor the prediction of the response electric properties Inthe present study we used the Coulomb-attenuating hybridexchange-correlation functional (CAM-B3LYP) [36] whichhas been recently employed with success for computingelectronic (hyper)polarizabilities of organic compounds [37ndash48]

2 Computational Details

All calculations were performed with the Gaussian 09program [49] We used the molecular geometries pre-viously optimized at the DFT-B3LYP level with the 6-31Glowast basis set [14] Static and frequency-dependent elec-tronic (hyper)polarizability tensor components 120572119894119895 and120573119894119895119895 (119894 119895 = 119909 119910 119911) were obtained through the Coupled-Perturbed Hartree-Fock procedure [50 51] using the DFT-CAM-B3LYPmethodwith the polarized and diffuse 6-31+Glowastbasis set The CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6-31+Glowast basis

set can be considered suitable choices especially for theprediction of the electronic (hyper)polarizabilities of organicmolecules [37ndash48 52ndash54] However we checked the perfor-mances of the basis set (6-31+Glowast versus POL Sadlejrsquos basis set[55]) and level of calculation (CAM-B3LYP versus second-order Moslashller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2)) on therelated compound toluene Dynamic (hyper)polarizabilitieswere evaluated at the experimental NdYAG laser wavelengthof 1064 nm (ℏ120596 = 004282 au) for the SHG [120573(minus2120596 120596 120596)]and EOPE [120573(minus120596 120596 0)] NLO processes

We report the dipole moments (120583) the isotropicallyaveraged polarizabilities (⟨120572⟩) the polarizability anisotropies(Δ120572) and the isotropically first-order hyperpolarizabilities(120573vec) which are defined respectively as [56]

⟨120572⟩Δ120572 and120573vec values of toluene calculated using the CAM-B3LYP and MP2 levels with the 6-31+Glowast and Sadlejrsquos POLbasis set The latter basis set was specifically constructed forpolarizability computations and has been recently employedwith success to predict the electronic polarizabilities ofnaphthalene (N) [68] However it is well-demonstrated thatfor 120587-conjugated compounds the smaller 6-31+Glowast basis setfurnishes an adequate alternative to the POL as well asmore extended basis sets for predicting response electricproperties but at significantly minor computational costs[39 45ndash48 52ndash54]

The present results show that when passing from the6-31+Glowast to the POL basis set only marginal effects areobserved In fact the ⟨120572⟩ and Δ120572 values increase by 075 A3

(+65) and 025 A3 (+39) respectively whereas the 120573vecdecreases by 373 times 10minus53 C3m3Jminus2 (minus133) Note that the(hyper)polarizability calculations carried out using the 6-31+Glowast basis set require noticeablyminor CPU resources thanthose with the POL basis set (by about a factor of twenty)In addition we investigated the effects of the computa-tional method by comparing the CAM-B3LYP and MP2(hyper)polarizability data In line with the recent literature[37ndash39 45ndash48 69] the differences between the two levels arefurther smaller than those found for the basis sets the ⟨120572⟩Δ120572 and 120573vec values being calculated within 007 A3 (06)019 A3 (30) and 42 times 10minus53 C3m3Jminus2 (13) respectivelyThus considering the above results the CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast level can be judged as an acceptable compromisebetween accuracy and computational cost and has beenentirely employed for the subsequent calculations on thestatic and frequency-dependent (hyper)polarizabilities of theDMN isomers

120572119910119910 + 120572119911119911) The dispersion effects here evaluated at the ℏ120596 =004282 au are rather modest increasing the static 120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩

and Δ120572 values by 054ndash070 A3 + (2) 034ndash036 A3 (+2)and 040ndash055 A3 (+3) respectively Table 2 also reports thedata of the unsubstituted compoundN forwhich some exper-imental and high-level correlated ab initio values are availablein the literature [68 70] The static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩ and Δ120572 values of N agree satisfactorily with boththe observed (within minus08 minus28 and +23 resp) [70] andCCSDPOL data (within minus20 minus40 and +24 resp) [68]

Not surprisingly the static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast⟨120572⟩ valuesof the DMN isomers underestimate the previously calculatedB3LYP6-31+Glowast figures [14] by 042ndash051 A3 (20ndash24) prin-cipally owing to the introduction of nonlocal effects

The order of the static and dynamic CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast120572119909119909 values is the following

14-DMN sim 15-DMN lt 18-DMN lt 12-DMN lt 13-DMN sim 16-DMN lt 17-DMN lt 23-DMN lt 26-DMN sim 27-DMN

For the ⟨120572⟩ values the above order is slightly modified withthe 18-DMN and 26-DMN isomers being respectively theless and more polarizable along the series

18-DMN lt 14-DMN sim 15-DMN lt 12-DMN lt 17-DMNsim 13-DMNsim 16-DMNlt 23-DMNlt 27-DMNsim 26-DMN

The order of the Δ120572 values is rather similar to that found forthe 120572119909119909 data except for the inversions between 16-DMN and17-DMN and between 26-DMN and 27-DMN

14-DMN lt 15-DMN lt 18-DMN lt 12-DMN sim 13-DMNsim 17-DMNlt 16-DMNlt 23-DMNlt 27-DMNlt 26-DMN

All the predicted polarizabilities concordantly increase onpassing from the120572120572-DMNs to the120572120573-DMNs and then to the120573120573-DMNs in agreement with the previous ⟨120572⟩ data obtainedat the B3LYP6-31+Glowast level in gaseous and aqueous phases[14] Specifically when we compare the 14-DMN and 26-DMN isomers the static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast 120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩ andΔ120572 values enhance by 451 A3 (+170) 053 A3 (+26) and332 A3 (+241) respectively However whereas the static⟨120572⟩ data slightly change along the series of isomers (within065 A3 32) the Δ120572 and 120572119909119909 values are distributed overlarger ranges beingwithin 332 A3 (241) and 454 A3 (171)respectively On the whole these results suggest that incomparison to the average polarizabilities the 120572119909119909 and Δ120572

properties are much more affected by the position of themethyl substituent being potentially useful to identify theDMN isomers Additionally in agreement with a previousstudy on the average polarizabilities [14] the present 120572119909119909

and Δ120572 data of DMNs are found to be linearly related tothe biodegradation experimental biomass-normalized first-order rate coefficients 119896119887 [12] confirming the crucial roleof the polarizabilities in the biodegradation process of thisgroup of organic pollutants The 120572119909119909119896119887 ⟨120572⟩119896119887 and Δ120572119896119887

linear relationships are displayed in Figure 2 showing goodstatistics since the 119903 value is predicted between 097 and100 (following the discussion reported in [14] the 27-DMNisomer was excluded from the relationships)

In order to explain the polarizability differences amongthe DMN isomers we analyzed the spatial contributions ofelectrons to the polarizabilities by using the concept of den-sity of polarizability 120588

isomers are rather different from each other In fact on pass-ing from 14-DMN to 18-DMN the 120573vec(minus120596120590 1205961 1205962) dataincrease by a factor of threefour whereas the 120573vec(15-DMN) value is zero (1198622ℎ symmetry point group) Note thata somewhat different situation occurs for the 120572120573-DMNisomers which exhibit hyperpolarizabilities much closer toeach other

Interestingly as for the computed 120573vec data 120583(14-DMN)

and 120583(23-DMN) (Table 3) are respectively the smallest andgreatest 120583 values along the series of the DMNs The orderof the 120583 values is roughly similar to that of the first-orderhyperpolarizabilities a linear relationship between the 120573vecand 120583 values being established (120573vec = 11832 + 9486 times 120583119903 = 092) This result indicates that as for the 120583 data the120573vec values of the DMNs are mainly affected by the mutualdisposition of the CH3 groups mesomeric effect enhance-ments of the hyperpolarizabilities being expected to bemarginal

As for the polarizabilities we explored the hyperpolar-izability differences between the 14-DMN and 23-DMNisomers through hyperpolarizability density analyses The 120573

4 Conclusions

In this study we investigated the electronic polarizabilitiesand first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the series of DMNisomersThe computations were performed in vacuum usingthe CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6-31+Glowast basis set Theresponse electric properties were obtained in the static anddynamic regimes for the SHG and EOPE NLO phenomenaat the 120582 value of 1064 nm The average polarizability varies alittle along the series of isomers whereas both the longitu-dinal polarizability and anisotropy of polarizability are muchmore affected by the position of the methyl substituents Inagreement with recent theoretical studies on the polarizabil-ities [14] and Raman spectra [15] linear relationships areestablished between the calculated polarizabilities and theexperimental biodegradation rates of DMNs confirming theimportant role of dispersive andor inductive interactions forthe biodegradative mechanisms of this group of substitutedPAH isomers

The static and frequency-dependent first-order hyperpo-larizabilities are strongly dependent on the relative position ofthe CH3 groups This is especially evident for the 120572120572-DMNand 120573120573-DMN isomers 26-DMN lt 27-DMN lt 23-DMNand 15-DMN lt 14-DMN lt 18-DMN The present resultssuggest that some DMN isomers might be distinguishedthrough SHG and EOPE NLO measurements Density anal-ysis computations are useful for qualitative interpretations ofthe (hyper)polarizabilities of the DMN isomers

Figure 1 Coordinate system and atom numbering of dimethylnaphthalene (DMN) isomers

optical (NLO) properties Second Harmonic Generation(SHG) and Electro-Optical Pockels Effect (EOPE) [17ndash32]SHGmeasurements are currently employed for the structuralidentification of biomolecules such as peptides and proteins[28ndash32]

Themain focus of this study is to determine the static andfrequency-dependent electronic 120572 and 120573 values of the seriesof the DMN isomers aiming to explore the effects of the posi-tion of the CH3 groups on these electric properties poten-tially helpful for the isomeric discrimination The electronic(hyper)polarizabilities are commonly predicted by means ofab initio andor Density Functional Theory (DFT) computa-tionsHowever aswell-known in the literature for an accuratedetermination of the electronic (hyper)polarizabilities thechoice of the functional is critical especially in the case of120587-conjugated compounds [33] In fact on the whole theconventional DFT methods tend to systematically overesti-mate the electronic (hyper)polarizabilities obtained by high-level correlated ab initio levels On the other hand the long-range corrected DFTmethods incorporating nonlocal effects[34 35] describe adequately the diffuse regions of the chargedistributions giving much more satisfactory performancesfor the prediction of the response electric properties Inthe present study we used the Coulomb-attenuating hybridexchange-correlation functional (CAM-B3LYP) [36] whichhas been recently employed with success for computingelectronic (hyper)polarizabilities of organic compounds [37ndash48]

2 Computational Details

All calculations were performed with the Gaussian 09program [49] We used the molecular geometries pre-viously optimized at the DFT-B3LYP level with the 6-31Glowast basis set [14] Static and frequency-dependent elec-tronic (hyper)polarizability tensor components 120572119894119895 and120573119894119895119895 (119894 119895 = 119909 119910 119911) were obtained through the Coupled-Perturbed Hartree-Fock procedure [50 51] using the DFT-CAM-B3LYPmethodwith the polarized and diffuse 6-31+Glowastbasis set The CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6-31+Glowast basis

set can be considered suitable choices especially for theprediction of the electronic (hyper)polarizabilities of organicmolecules [37ndash48 52ndash54] However we checked the perfor-mances of the basis set (6-31+Glowast versus POL Sadlejrsquos basis set[55]) and level of calculation (CAM-B3LYP versus second-order Moslashller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2)) on therelated compound toluene Dynamic (hyper)polarizabilitieswere evaluated at the experimental NdYAG laser wavelengthof 1064 nm (ℏ120596 = 004282 au) for the SHG [120573(minus2120596 120596 120596)]and EOPE [120573(minus120596 120596 0)] NLO processes

We report the dipole moments (120583) the isotropicallyaveraged polarizabilities (⟨120572⟩) the polarizability anisotropies(Δ120572) and the isotropically first-order hyperpolarizabilities(120573vec) which are defined respectively as [56]

3 Results and Discussion

31 Basis Set and Level of Calculation Effects Response ElectricProperties of Toluene For an accurate prediction of theelectronic (hyper)polarizabilities the choice of the basis setand level of computation is of crucial importance [57ndash67] Inthe present study we explored the effects of the basis set andtheoretical level on toluene as a test case Table 1 reports the

⟨120572⟩Δ120572 and120573vec values of toluene calculated using the CAM-B3LYP and MP2 levels with the 6-31+Glowast and Sadlejrsquos POLbasis set The latter basis set was specifically constructed forpolarizability computations and has been recently employedwith success to predict the electronic polarizabilities ofnaphthalene (N) [68] However it is well-demonstrated thatfor 120587-conjugated compounds the smaller 6-31+Glowast basis setfurnishes an adequate alternative to the POL as well asmore extended basis sets for predicting response electricproperties but at significantly minor computational costs[39 45ndash48 52ndash54]

The present results show that when passing from the6-31+Glowast to the POL basis set only marginal effects areobserved In fact the ⟨120572⟩ and Δ120572 values increase by 075 A3

(+65) and 025 A3 (+39) respectively whereas the 120573vecdecreases by 373 times 10minus53 C3m3Jminus2 (minus133) Note that the(hyper)polarizability calculations carried out using the 6-31+Glowast basis set require noticeablyminor CPU resources thanthose with the POL basis set (by about a factor of twenty)In addition we investigated the effects of the computa-tional method by comparing the CAM-B3LYP and MP2(hyper)polarizability data In line with the recent literature[37ndash39 45ndash48 69] the differences between the two levels arefurther smaller than those found for the basis sets the ⟨120572⟩Δ120572 and 120573vec values being calculated within 007 A3 (06)019 A3 (30) and 42 times 10minus53 C3m3Jminus2 (13) respectivelyThus considering the above results the CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast level can be judged as an acceptable compromisebetween accuracy and computational cost and has beenentirely employed for the subsequent calculations on thestatic and frequency-dependent (hyper)polarizabilities of theDMN isomers

32 Static and Dynamic Polarizabilities of the DMN IsomersTable 2 lists the static and frequency-dependent polarizabil-ities of the DMNs calculated in the gas phase at the CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast level For all the isomers 120572119909119909 is the largestcomponent giving 43ndash49 of the total polarizabilities (120572119909119909 +

120572119910119910 + 120572119911119911) The dispersion effects here evaluated at the ℏ120596 =004282 au are rather modest increasing the static 120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩

and Δ120572 values by 054ndash070 A3 + (2) 034ndash036 A3 (+2)and 040ndash055 A3 (+3) respectively Table 2 also reports thedata of the unsubstituted compoundN forwhich some exper-imental and high-level correlated ab initio values are availablein the literature [68 70] The static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩ and Δ120572 values of N agree satisfactorily with boththe observed (within minus08 minus28 and +23 resp) [70] andCCSDPOL data (within minus20 minus40 and +24 resp) [68]

Not surprisingly the static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast⟨120572⟩ valuesof the DMN isomers underestimate the previously calculatedB3LYP6-31+Glowast figures [14] by 042ndash051 A3 (20ndash24) prin-cipally owing to the introduction of nonlocal effects

The order of the static and dynamic CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast120572119909119909 values is the following

14-DMN sim 15-DMN lt 18-DMN lt 12-DMN lt 13-DMN sim 16-DMN lt 17-DMN lt 23-DMN lt 26-DMN sim 27-DMN

For the ⟨120572⟩ values the above order is slightly modified withthe 18-DMN and 26-DMN isomers being respectively theless and more polarizable along the series

18-DMN lt 14-DMN sim 15-DMN lt 12-DMN lt 17-DMNsim 13-DMNsim 16-DMNlt 23-DMNlt 27-DMNsim 26-DMN

The order of the Δ120572 values is rather similar to that found forthe 120572119909119909 data except for the inversions between 16-DMN and17-DMN and between 26-DMN and 27-DMN

14-DMN lt 15-DMN lt 18-DMN lt 12-DMN sim 13-DMNsim 17-DMNlt 16-DMNlt 23-DMNlt 27-DMNlt 26-DMN

All the predicted polarizabilities concordantly increase onpassing from the120572120572-DMNs to the120572120573-DMNs and then to the120573120573-DMNs in agreement with the previous ⟨120572⟩ data obtainedat the B3LYP6-31+Glowast level in gaseous and aqueous phases[14] Specifically when we compare the 14-DMN and 26-DMN isomers the static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast 120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩ andΔ120572 values enhance by 451 A3 (+170) 053 A3 (+26) and332 A3 (+241) respectively However whereas the static⟨120572⟩ data slightly change along the series of isomers (within065 A3 32) the Δ120572 and 120572119909119909 values are distributed overlarger ranges beingwithin 332 A3 (241) and 454 A3 (171)respectively On the whole these results suggest that incomparison to the average polarizabilities the 120572119909119909 and Δ120572

properties are much more affected by the position of themethyl substituent being potentially useful to identify theDMN isomers Additionally in agreement with a previousstudy on the average polarizabilities [14] the present 120572119909119909

and Δ120572 data of DMNs are found to be linearly related tothe biodegradation experimental biomass-normalized first-order rate coefficients 119896119887 [12] confirming the crucial roleof the polarizabilities in the biodegradation process of thisgroup of organic pollutants The 120572119909119909119896119887 ⟨120572⟩119896119887 and Δ120572119896119887

linear relationships are displayed in Figure 2 showing goodstatistics since the 119903 value is predicted between 097 and100 (following the discussion reported in [14] the 27-DMNisomer was excluded from the relationships)

In order to explain the polarizability differences amongthe DMN isomers we analyzed the spatial contributions ofelectrons to the polarizabilities by using the concept of den-sity of polarizability 120588

The dispersion effects enhance the static 120573vec(000) values by6ndash18 and 17ndash57 for the EOPE and SHG processesrespectively the largest increases being found for 14-DMNin agreement with its highest 120582max value among the DMNisomers

The static and dynamic 120573vec values concordantly predictthe following order

Note that the above order is rather different from thoseobtained for the polarizabilities a 120573vec versus 119896119887 relationshipcannot be established In particular the static and dynamicCAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast 120573vec(23-DMN) values are calculatedto be 5-6 times higher than the corresponding data obtainedfor the 14-DMN isomer More importantly we notice thatthe first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the 120573120573-DMNs aresomewhat different from each other for the 26-DMN isomerthe 120573vec is zero since it belongs to the 1198622ℎ symmetry pointgroup whereas the 120573vec(23-DMN)120573vec(27-DMN) ratios arepredicted to be 25ndash27 by the present static and dynamiccomputations Similarly the 120573vec values of the 120572120572-DMN

isomers are rather different from each other In fact on pass-ing from 14-DMN to 18-DMN the 120573vec(minus120596120590 1205961 1205962) dataincrease by a factor of threefour whereas the 120573vec(15-DMN) value is zero (1198622ℎ symmetry point group) Note thata somewhat different situation occurs for the 120572120573-DMNisomers which exhibit hyperpolarizabilities much closer toeach other

Interestingly as for the computed 120573vec data 120583(14-DMN)

and 120583(23-DMN) (Table 3) are respectively the smallest andgreatest 120583 values along the series of the DMNs The orderof the 120583 values is roughly similar to that of the first-orderhyperpolarizabilities a linear relationship between the 120573vecand 120583 values being established (120573vec = 11832 + 9486 times 120583119903 = 092) This result indicates that as for the 120583 data the120573vec values of the DMNs are mainly affected by the mutualdisposition of the CH3 groups mesomeric effect enhance-ments of the hyperpolarizabilities being expected to bemarginal

As for the polarizabilities we explored the hyperpolar-izability differences between the 14-DMN and 23-DMNisomers through hyperpolarizability density analyses The 120573

4 Conclusions

In this study we investigated the electronic polarizabilitiesand first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the series of DMNisomersThe computations were performed in vacuum usingthe CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6-31+Glowast basis set Theresponse electric properties were obtained in the static anddynamic regimes for the SHG and EOPE NLO phenomenaat the 120582 value of 1064 nm The average polarizability varies alittle along the series of isomers whereas both the longitu-dinal polarizability and anisotropy of polarizability are muchmore affected by the position of the methyl substituents Inagreement with recent theoretical studies on the polarizabil-ities [14] and Raman spectra [15] linear relationships areestablished between the calculated polarizabilities and theexperimental biodegradation rates of DMNs confirming theimportant role of dispersive andor inductive interactions forthe biodegradative mechanisms of this group of substitutedPAH isomers

The static and frequency-dependent first-order hyperpo-larizabilities are strongly dependent on the relative position ofthe CH3 groups This is especially evident for the 120572120572-DMNand 120573120573-DMN isomers 26-DMN lt 27-DMN lt 23-DMNand 15-DMN lt 14-DMN lt 18-DMN The present resultssuggest that some DMN isomers might be distinguishedthrough SHG and EOPE NLO measurements Density anal-ysis computations are useful for qualitative interpretations ofthe (hyper)polarizabilities of the DMN isomers

⟨120572⟩Δ120572 and120573vec values of toluene calculated using the CAM-B3LYP and MP2 levels with the 6-31+Glowast and Sadlejrsquos POLbasis set The latter basis set was specifically constructed forpolarizability computations and has been recently employedwith success to predict the electronic polarizabilities ofnaphthalene (N) [68] However it is well-demonstrated thatfor 120587-conjugated compounds the smaller 6-31+Glowast basis setfurnishes an adequate alternative to the POL as well asmore extended basis sets for predicting response electricproperties but at significantly minor computational costs[39 45ndash48 52ndash54]

The present results show that when passing from the6-31+Glowast to the POL basis set only marginal effects areobserved In fact the ⟨120572⟩ and Δ120572 values increase by 075 A3

(+65) and 025 A3 (+39) respectively whereas the 120573vecdecreases by 373 times 10minus53 C3m3Jminus2 (minus133) Note that the(hyper)polarizability calculations carried out using the 6-31+Glowast basis set require noticeablyminor CPU resources thanthose with the POL basis set (by about a factor of twenty)In addition we investigated the effects of the computa-tional method by comparing the CAM-B3LYP and MP2(hyper)polarizability data In line with the recent literature[37ndash39 45ndash48 69] the differences between the two levels arefurther smaller than those found for the basis sets the ⟨120572⟩Δ120572 and 120573vec values being calculated within 007 A3 (06)019 A3 (30) and 42 times 10minus53 C3m3Jminus2 (13) respectivelyThus considering the above results the CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast level can be judged as an acceptable compromisebetween accuracy and computational cost and has beenentirely employed for the subsequent calculations on thestatic and frequency-dependent (hyper)polarizabilities of theDMN isomers

32 Static and Dynamic Polarizabilities of the DMN IsomersTable 2 lists the static and frequency-dependent polarizabil-ities of the DMNs calculated in the gas phase at the CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast level For all the isomers 120572119909119909 is the largestcomponent giving 43ndash49 of the total polarizabilities (120572119909119909 +

120572119910119910 + 120572119911119911) The dispersion effects here evaluated at the ℏ120596 =004282 au are rather modest increasing the static 120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩

and Δ120572 values by 054ndash070 A3 + (2) 034ndash036 A3 (+2)and 040ndash055 A3 (+3) respectively Table 2 also reports thedata of the unsubstituted compoundN forwhich some exper-imental and high-level correlated ab initio values are availablein the literature [68 70] The static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩ and Δ120572 values of N agree satisfactorily with boththe observed (within minus08 minus28 and +23 resp) [70] andCCSDPOL data (within minus20 minus40 and +24 resp) [68]

Not surprisingly the static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast⟨120572⟩ valuesof the DMN isomers underestimate the previously calculatedB3LYP6-31+Glowast figures [14] by 042ndash051 A3 (20ndash24) prin-cipally owing to the introduction of nonlocal effects

The order of the static and dynamic CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast120572119909119909 values is the following

14-DMN sim 15-DMN lt 18-DMN lt 12-DMN lt 13-DMN sim 16-DMN lt 17-DMN lt 23-DMN lt 26-DMN sim 27-DMN

For the ⟨120572⟩ values the above order is slightly modified withthe 18-DMN and 26-DMN isomers being respectively theless and more polarizable along the series

18-DMN lt 14-DMN sim 15-DMN lt 12-DMN lt 17-DMNsim 13-DMNsim 16-DMNlt 23-DMNlt 27-DMNsim 26-DMN

The order of the Δ120572 values is rather similar to that found forthe 120572119909119909 data except for the inversions between 16-DMN and17-DMN and between 26-DMN and 27-DMN

14-DMN lt 15-DMN lt 18-DMN lt 12-DMN sim 13-DMNsim 17-DMNlt 16-DMNlt 23-DMNlt 27-DMNlt 26-DMN

All the predicted polarizabilities concordantly increase onpassing from the120572120572-DMNs to the120572120573-DMNs and then to the120573120573-DMNs in agreement with the previous ⟨120572⟩ data obtainedat the B3LYP6-31+Glowast level in gaseous and aqueous phases[14] Specifically when we compare the 14-DMN and 26-DMN isomers the static CAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast 120572119909119909 ⟨120572⟩ andΔ120572 values enhance by 451 A3 (+170) 053 A3 (+26) and332 A3 (+241) respectively However whereas the static⟨120572⟩ data slightly change along the series of isomers (within065 A3 32) the Δ120572 and 120572119909119909 values are distributed overlarger ranges beingwithin 332 A3 (241) and 454 A3 (171)respectively On the whole these results suggest that incomparison to the average polarizabilities the 120572119909119909 and Δ120572

properties are much more affected by the position of themethyl substituent being potentially useful to identify theDMN isomers Additionally in agreement with a previousstudy on the average polarizabilities [14] the present 120572119909119909

and Δ120572 data of DMNs are found to be linearly related tothe biodegradation experimental biomass-normalized first-order rate coefficients 119896119887 [12] confirming the crucial roleof the polarizabilities in the biodegradation process of thisgroup of organic pollutants The 120572119909119909119896119887 ⟨120572⟩119896119887 and Δ120572119896119887

linear relationships are displayed in Figure 2 showing goodstatistics since the 119903 value is predicted between 097 and100 (following the discussion reported in [14] the 27-DMNisomer was excluded from the relationships)

In order to explain the polarizability differences amongthe DMN isomers we analyzed the spatial contributions ofelectrons to the polarizabilities by using the concept of den-sity of polarizability 120588

isomers are rather different from each other In fact on pass-ing from 14-DMN to 18-DMN the 120573vec(minus120596120590 1205961 1205962) dataincrease by a factor of threefour whereas the 120573vec(15-DMN) value is zero (1198622ℎ symmetry point group) Note thata somewhat different situation occurs for the 120572120573-DMNisomers which exhibit hyperpolarizabilities much closer toeach other

Interestingly as for the computed 120573vec data 120583(14-DMN)

and 120583(23-DMN) (Table 3) are respectively the smallest andgreatest 120583 values along the series of the DMNs The orderof the 120583 values is roughly similar to that of the first-orderhyperpolarizabilities a linear relationship between the 120573vecand 120583 values being established (120573vec = 11832 + 9486 times 120583119903 = 092) This result indicates that as for the 120583 data the120573vec values of the DMNs are mainly affected by the mutualdisposition of the CH3 groups mesomeric effect enhance-ments of the hyperpolarizabilities being expected to bemarginal

4 Conclusions

In this study we investigated the electronic polarizabilitiesand first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the series of DMNisomersThe computations were performed in vacuum usingthe CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6-31+Glowast basis set Theresponse electric properties were obtained in the static anddynamic regimes for the SHG and EOPE NLO phenomenaat the 120582 value of 1064 nm The average polarizability varies alittle along the series of isomers whereas both the longitu-dinal polarizability and anisotropy of polarizability are muchmore affected by the position of the methyl substituents Inagreement with recent theoretical studies on the polarizabil-ities [14] and Raman spectra [15] linear relationships areestablished between the calculated polarizabilities and theexperimental biodegradation rates of DMNs confirming theimportant role of dispersive andor inductive interactions forthe biodegradative mechanisms of this group of substitutedPAH isomers

The static and frequency-dependent first-order hyperpo-larizabilities are strongly dependent on the relative position ofthe CH3 groups This is especially evident for the 120572120572-DMNand 120573120573-DMN isomers 26-DMN lt 27-DMN lt 23-DMNand 15-DMN lt 14-DMN lt 18-DMN The present resultssuggest that some DMN isomers might be distinguishedthrough SHG and EOPE NLO measurements Density anal-ysis computations are useful for qualitative interpretations ofthe (hyper)polarizabilities of the DMN isomers

isomers are rather different from each other In fact on pass-ing from 14-DMN to 18-DMN the 120573vec(minus120596120590 1205961 1205962) dataincrease by a factor of threefour whereas the 120573vec(15-DMN) value is zero (1198622ℎ symmetry point group) Note thata somewhat different situation occurs for the 120572120573-DMNisomers which exhibit hyperpolarizabilities much closer toeach other

Interestingly as for the computed 120573vec data 120583(14-DMN)

and 120583(23-DMN) (Table 3) are respectively the smallest andgreatest 120583 values along the series of the DMNs The orderof the 120583 values is roughly similar to that of the first-orderhyperpolarizabilities a linear relationship between the 120573vecand 120583 values being established (120573vec = 11832 + 9486 times 120583119903 = 092) This result indicates that as for the 120583 data the120573vec values of the DMNs are mainly affected by the mutualdisposition of the CH3 groups mesomeric effect enhance-ments of the hyperpolarizabilities being expected to bemarginal

As for the polarizabilities we explored the hyperpolar-izability differences between the 14-DMN and 23-DMNisomers through hyperpolarizability density analyses The 120573

4 Conclusions

In this study we investigated the electronic polarizabilitiesand first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the series of DMNisomersThe computations were performed in vacuum usingthe CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6-31+Glowast basis set Theresponse electric properties were obtained in the static anddynamic regimes for the SHG and EOPE NLO phenomenaat the 120582 value of 1064 nm The average polarizability varies alittle along the series of isomers whereas both the longitu-dinal polarizability and anisotropy of polarizability are muchmore affected by the position of the methyl substituents Inagreement with recent theoretical studies on the polarizabil-ities [14] and Raman spectra [15] linear relationships areestablished between the calculated polarizabilities and theexperimental biodegradation rates of DMNs confirming theimportant role of dispersive andor inductive interactions forthe biodegradative mechanisms of this group of substitutedPAH isomers

The static and frequency-dependent first-order hyperpo-larizabilities are strongly dependent on the relative position ofthe CH3 groups This is especially evident for the 120572120572-DMNand 120573120573-DMN isomers 26-DMN lt 27-DMN lt 23-DMNand 15-DMN lt 14-DMN lt 18-DMN The present resultssuggest that some DMN isomers might be distinguishedthrough SHG and EOPE NLO measurements Density anal-ysis computations are useful for qualitative interpretations ofthe (hyper)polarizabilities of the DMN isomers

The static and dynamic 120573vec values concordantly predictthe following order

Note that the above order is rather different from thoseobtained for the polarizabilities a 120573vec versus 119896119887 relationshipcannot be established In particular the static and dynamicCAM-B3LYP6-31+Glowast 120573vec(23-DMN) values are calculatedto be 5-6 times higher than the corresponding data obtainedfor the 14-DMN isomer More importantly we notice thatthe first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the 120573120573-DMNs aresomewhat different from each other for the 26-DMN isomerthe 120573vec is zero since it belongs to the 1198622ℎ symmetry pointgroup whereas the 120573vec(23-DMN)120573vec(27-DMN) ratios arepredicted to be 25ndash27 by the present static and dynamiccomputations Similarly the 120573vec values of the 120572120572-DMN

isomers are rather different from each other In fact on pass-ing from 14-DMN to 18-DMN the 120573vec(minus120596120590 1205961 1205962) dataincrease by a factor of threefour whereas the 120573vec(15-DMN) value is zero (1198622ℎ symmetry point group) Note thata somewhat different situation occurs for the 120572120573-DMNisomers which exhibit hyperpolarizabilities much closer toeach other

Interestingly as for the computed 120573vec data 120583(14-DMN)

and 120583(23-DMN) (Table 3) are respectively the smallest andgreatest 120583 values along the series of the DMNs The orderof the 120583 values is roughly similar to that of the first-orderhyperpolarizabilities a linear relationship between the 120573vecand 120583 values being established (120573vec = 11832 + 9486 times 120583119903 = 092) This result indicates that as for the 120583 data the120573vec values of the DMNs are mainly affected by the mutualdisposition of the CH3 groups mesomeric effect enhance-ments of the hyperpolarizabilities being expected to bemarginal

As for the polarizabilities we explored the hyperpolar-izability differences between the 14-DMN and 23-DMNisomers through hyperpolarizability density analyses The 120573

density 120588(2)

(119903) is expressed as follows [71 74]

4 Conclusions

In this study we investigated the electronic polarizabilitiesand first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the series of DMNisomersThe computations were performed in vacuum usingthe CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6-31+Glowast basis set Theresponse electric properties were obtained in the static anddynamic regimes for the SHG and EOPE NLO phenomenaat the 120582 value of 1064 nm The average polarizability varies alittle along the series of isomers whereas both the longitu-dinal polarizability and anisotropy of polarizability are muchmore affected by the position of the methyl substituents Inagreement with recent theoretical studies on the polarizabil-ities [14] and Raman spectra [15] linear relationships areestablished between the calculated polarizabilities and theexperimental biodegradation rates of DMNs confirming theimportant role of dispersive andor inductive interactions forthe biodegradative mechanisms of this group of substitutedPAH isomers

The static and frequency-dependent first-order hyperpo-larizabilities are strongly dependent on the relative position ofthe CH3 groups This is especially evident for the 120572120572-DMNand 120573120573-DMN isomers 26-DMN lt 27-DMN lt 23-DMNand 15-DMN lt 14-DMN lt 18-DMN The present resultssuggest that some DMN isomers might be distinguishedthrough SHG and EOPE NLO measurements Density anal-ysis computations are useful for qualitative interpretations ofthe (hyper)polarizabilities of the DMN isomers

isomers are rather different from each other In fact on pass-ing from 14-DMN to 18-DMN the 120573vec(minus120596120590 1205961 1205962) dataincrease by a factor of threefour whereas the 120573vec(15-DMN) value is zero (1198622ℎ symmetry point group) Note thata somewhat different situation occurs for the 120572120573-DMNisomers which exhibit hyperpolarizabilities much closer toeach other

Interestingly as for the computed 120573vec data 120583(14-DMN)

and 120583(23-DMN) (Table 3) are respectively the smallest andgreatest 120583 values along the series of the DMNs The orderof the 120583 values is roughly similar to that of the first-orderhyperpolarizabilities a linear relationship between the 120573vecand 120583 values being established (120573vec = 11832 + 9486 times 120583119903 = 092) This result indicates that as for the 120583 data the120573vec values of the DMNs are mainly affected by the mutualdisposition of the CH3 groups mesomeric effect enhance-ments of the hyperpolarizabilities being expected to bemarginal

As for the polarizabilities we explored the hyperpolar-izability differences between the 14-DMN and 23-DMNisomers through hyperpolarizability density analyses The 120573

4 Conclusions

In this study we investigated the electronic polarizabilitiesand first-order hyperpolarizabilities of the series of DMNisomersThe computations were performed in vacuum usingthe CAM-B3LYP functional and the 6-31+Glowast basis set Theresponse electric properties were obtained in the static anddynamic regimes for the SHG and EOPE NLO phenomenaat the 120582 value of 1064 nm The average polarizability varies alittle along the series of isomers whereas both the longitu-dinal polarizability and anisotropy of polarizability are muchmore affected by the position of the methyl substituents Inagreement with recent theoretical studies on the polarizabil-ities [14] and Raman spectra [15] linear relationships areestablished between the calculated polarizabilities and theexperimental biodegradation rates of DMNs confirming theimportant role of dispersive andor inductive interactions forthe biodegradative mechanisms of this group of substitutedPAH isomers

The static and frequency-dependent first-order hyperpo-larizabilities are strongly dependent on the relative position ofthe CH3 groups This is especially evident for the 120572120572-DMNand 120573120573-DMN isomers 26-DMN lt 27-DMN lt 23-DMNand 15-DMN lt 14-DMN lt 18-DMN The present resultssuggest that some DMN isomers might be distinguishedthrough SHG and EOPE NLO measurements Density anal-ysis computations are useful for qualitative interpretations ofthe (hyper)polarizabilities of the DMN isomers
