Abstract The semiempirical molecular orbital CNDO/S-CI spectral parameterization has been used to elucidate the lower electronic states of a series of dioxodiazacycloalkanes. The a1, b1, and a' occupied molecular orbitals lie predominantly on the oxygen, while a2, b2, and a" are largerly nonbonding orbitals delocalized on the nitrogen and oxygen atoms. The two lowest unoccupied virtual orbitals are predicted to be of b2, a2, and a" symmetry. These orbitals are strongly localized on the C = 0 group. The resulting 1 B2(u0π*) and 1 A2(n0π*) spectroscopic states involve intramolecular charge transfer from the oxygen to the carbon atom of the carbonyl group, which is supported by electron density calculations of these excited states. Although the calculated transition energies may not allow for absolute comparisons with experimental values, it appears that the introduction of self-consistency together with solvation energy and configuration interaction, when the elements of the interaction matrix are properly evaluated, lead to a fairly good interpretation of the singlet-singlet transitions. The lowest energy singlet excited state calculated for each structure is comprised almost entirely of the nπ* configuration.

The electronic transition energies and ionization potentials of formaldehyde have been calculated by a semi-empirical molecular orbital method, using several different ways of evaluating the diagonal matrix elements, in an attempt to adapt the Pariser–Parr–Pople method to the calculation of σ electron properties. The use of theoretically computed penetration integrals in this semi-empirical calculation lead to incorrect relative separation of the π-, σ-, and nonbonding molecular orbital energies, and hence to failure in predicting n →π* and n → σ* transition energies. A method is developed which reproduces the spectrum of formaldehyde (which includes n–π*, π–π*, and n–σ* electronic transitions) satisfactorily. In paper II of this series, this method is applied to study the spectrum of HCN and CO2.
