Abstract: Using the UMP2/6-311+G(3df) method, eight optimized structures of FnLin+1(n=1—3) with all real frequencies were obtained. The nonlinear optical(NLO) properties of the species were investigated. The results show that the hypervalent compounds have large first hyperpolarizabilities with β0=2299.2—12322.3 a.u.. It is found that the diffusive electron clouds of hypervalent compounds play very important roles in low excited energies, which results in large first hyperpolarizabilities of FnLin+1. The present investigation indicates that the noncentro-symmetric hypervalent compound is a new kind of potential NLO molecules.
