Data on calculated orbital energies and experimentally measured ionization potentials of carbocyclic and heterocyclic aromatic compounds are compared and contrasted. The ordering or orbital energies and ionization potentials do not always seem to parallel one another, probably owing to either electron correlation effects, or to deviations from Koopman’s theorem. The effects on photoelectron spectra of using different light sources and analysers are discussed in relation to their bearing on the orbital orderings of aromatic compounds. The high resolution He 584 A. photoelectron spectrum of pyridine is shown to be open to two interpretations regarding the ordering of the ionization potentials of the π orbitals and the ‘nitrogen lone pair’ (n). One of the interpretations involves the three lowest pyridine ionization potentials being π (9.2 eV), π L (9.5 eV) and n (10.5 eV) whilst the other has the first three ionization potentials being the order π , n, π . The photoelectron spectra of substituted pyridines and diazines are discussed in the light of the two possible explanations for the pyridine spectrum.

Primary aliphatic amines can be characterized by infrared spectroscopy as to the nature and degree of branching of the alkyl chain, using the fundamental antisymmetric and symmetric NH2 stretching frequencies measured in dilute C2Cl4 solution. Where steric and direct conjugation effects are absent both frequencies and the integrated intensity of the antisymmetric band increase linearly with decreasing inductive electron-donating power of the alkyl chain. The integrated intensity of the symmetric band, which is smaller than that for the antisymmetric band in all the 26 compounds studied, is independent of the inductive nature of the alkyl chain as a first approximation. These results indicate that the N-atom lone-pair orbital in RNH2 plays a negligibly small role in modifying the inductive effect of R on NH2 frequencies and intensities as long as the N-atom hybridization remains sp3.

AbstractThe complexation energies of H3BNHnCl3−n (n= 3-0) complexes and the proton affinities of NHnCl3−n compounds have been computed at the G2(MP2) level of theory. G2(MP2) results show that the successive chlorine substitution on the ammonia decreases both the basicity of the NHnCl3−n ligands and the stability of H3BNHnCl3−n complexes. The findings are interpreted in terms of the rehybridisation of the nitrogen lone-pair orbital. The NBO partitioning scheme shows that the variation of the N-H and N-Cl bond lengths, upon complexation, is due to variation of “s” character in these bonds.

CNDO calculations have been carried out for the molecule InC5H5 of C5υ symmetry. Overlap populations were calculated and compared with those for related species. The bonding between In and the organic moiety can be described as essentially a covalent interaction involving mainly indium 5s and 5p orbitals with ring pπ orbitals. A lone pair on indium is a dominant feature of the structure, and is largely responsible for a (calculated) dipole moment of 4.75 D. The calculated orbital energies are compared with experimental photoelectron spectra.
