Continuous charge distribution models of ions in polar media. Part 4.—Planar elliptic ring systems

Abstract

This paper reports a continuation of our investigation into the solvation self and interaction energies of continuous charge distribution models of molecular ionic systems. In particular, the ring system considered previously is generalized by examining an elliptic modification. The previous work was suitable for the consideration of the self and interaction energies of benzenoid redical ions. This work is suitable for the consideration of naphthalenic and higher regular shaped radical ions.
