Using the CNDO/2 method, the authors have calculated the valence electron density distribution in molecules of diphenylamine and its 13 derivatives with the substituents COOH, NO/sub 2/, OCH/sub 3/ on the aromatic rings of ionized forms of some diaryl amines, and also 4-amino- and 4-amino-4'-adnitro substituted compounds with bridge groups NH, O, S, CH/sub 2/, CH = CH and analogous diphenyl derivatives. They have shown that independently of the nature of the bridge group, the principle of uncoupling of the aromatic rings is basically retained. Strong long-range effects of the substituents along the chain of chemical bonds are not apparent. They have calculated the electrostatic molecular potential of the indicated compounds. They have established correlations between the electrostatic molecular potential and the protonization constants, the oxidation-reduction potentials of diarylamines; and also between the electrostatic molecular potential and the reaction rate constant for acylation of primary bridged amines at the amino group.
