A series of donor–acceptor substituted stilbene and diphenylacetylene derivatives and their octupolar analogues have been synthesized and the linear and nonlinear optical properties ( β ) studied by both experiments and theoretical calculation. The λ max of the dipoles increases with the conjugation length and is always larger when the C C bond is used, instead of the C≡C bond, as the conjugation bridge. Although the λ max values of the octupoles show no clear trend, they are much larger than those of the dipoles. The β (0) values of the dipoles increase with conjugation length and as the conjugation bridge is changed from the C≡C to C C bond. This increase is accompanied by an increase in either λ max or the oscillator strength. Similarly, the β (0) values of the octupoles increase with the conjugation length and with a change in the donor in the order: NEt 2
