Carborane has been the subject of great interest over the last decades due to its high structural, chemical, biological stability and diverse applications. In the present work, carboranyl-substituted indole/indoline compounds and their functionalized derivatives have been systematically investigated by density functional theory (DFT) method with the view of assessing their electronic structures and first hyperpolarizabilities. Significantly, the first hyperpolarizabilities can be obviously enhanced by the introduction of a strong electron-withdrawing group for closed-ring forms, while the strong electron-donating group is beneficial for large first hyperpolarizabilities for open-ring forms. It indicates that the NLO properties of these compounds can be enhanced by controlling their relative substituent groups. Furthermore, the time-dependent DFT calculation illustrates that the enhancement of the first hyperpolarizabilities are found due to the obvious charge transfer (CT) transition, and closed-ring forms have a significant difference on the CT patterns versus open-ring ones. Investigation of the structure-property relationship and substituent effects at the molecular level can benefit for further exploration of carboranyl-substituted indole/indoline derivatives with versatile and fascinating NLO properties.
