Abstract
A point charge-point dipole model for the electronic potential energy contribution to the Born-Oppenheimer potential of triatomic molecules is proposed. The polyatomic virial theorem, with appropriate approximations, is shown to allow one to proceed by implicit rather than explicit inclusion of the kinetic energy. Bending force constants and cubic stretching constants for XY2 molecules are predicted.
