Abstract: The calculations of stable structures and binding energies for BeQ2 and its substituted derivatives have been performed at HF and B3LYP levels. On this basis, changes in frontier molecular orbitals as well as nonlinear optical coefficients have been analysed systematically. It is shown that the interaction between metal and ligand could increase the value of the third order NLO susceptibility γ more significantly than that of the second order NLO susceptibility β; either electrondonor CH3 or electron acceptor CN can lower the binding energy, which increases the delocalization of electrons in the calculated systems, thus can contribute to improving in NLO properties.
