This chapter deals with quantitative aspects of molecular orbital (MO) theory: Construction of an orbital diagram, bonding and antibonding overlap, Koopmans’ theorem, orbital energies versus total energies, an explanation of the unintuitive ground state electron configurations seen for some neutral transition metals, and a discussion of orbital energy gaps versus electronic excitations and other observable energy gaps. Localized MOs show the chemical bonds expected from the Lewis structure more readily than the canonical orbitals obtained from solving the SCF equations. It is shown that the delocalization of localized, not the canonical, MOs shows whether a system is delocalized. Algorithms by which to obtain localized MOs are sketched.

LCAO local density calculations for ozone yield a ground state geometry in good agreement with experiment (R = 1.27 Å vs. 1.278 Å (exp.), θ = 117.5° vs. 116.8° (exp.)). A second local minimum is found about 45 kcal/mol higher for a cyclic geometry (R = 1.44 Å, θ = 60°). For S3 the calculations predict a bent ground state (R = 2.00 Å, θ = 116°) with the cyclic geometry (R = 2.125 Å, θ = 58°) about 15 kcal/mol higher.

Abstract Singlet biradicaloids are certainly one of the most frequently discussed topics at ISNA-15. In this review our own work on the synthesis, molecular structures, and physical properties relevant to biradical character of indenofluorene isomers are described. These include indeno[2,1-a]fluorene with an o-quinodimethane substructure, benz[c]indeno[2,1-a]fluorene which is the first 2,3-naphthoquinodimethane derivative isolated, and indeno[2,1-b]fluorene with an m-quinodimethane (m-xylylene) subunit. The observed physical properties are explained in terms of the theoretically derived biradical factors (y), HOMO-LUMO energy gaps, and singlet-triplet energy gaps in the ground state electronic configurations. In addition, we discuss here two perspectives in the biradicaloid chemistry, (i) two- and three-dimensional indenofluorene congeners arranged in a macrocyclic form and (ii) macrocyclic indenofluorenes having multiple radical characters.
