Transfer Processes

It is well known that excited states may be generated chemically in biological systems as evidencex and by the phenomenon of bioluminescence and it is natural to suspect that they may also be generated and used in dark processes (Szent-Györgyi, 1941; Steele, 1963; Cilento, 1965; White & Wei, 1970; Whiteet al.1971). Förster (1967) has pointed out that electronic excitation and subsequent transfer processes may occur in biological dark systems despite the fact that the energy available from enzymic processes is too low to excite aromatic amino acids and other biochemical structures. Hastings (1968) suggests that in some organisms light emission is just an alternative to the formation of an active species.

Orthogonal Set

Approximate self-consistent orbitals for excited electronic states of cis - and trans -1, 3- butadiene are obtained by a modification of Roothaan’s procedure, in the non-empirical π-electron approximation. The integrals used were evaluated by Parr & Mulliken for calculation of the ground-state electronic wave function. The effects of configuration interaction are calculated by an approximate method and compared with an exact calculation. Molecular orbitals have been obtained both with and without the auxiliary condition that spatial factors of both α and β spin-orbitals should be members of a single orthogonal set. Semiempirical values for the basic integrals, due to Pariser & Parr, have also been used to calculate the energies of excited states by the approximate configuration interaction method. Energy levels derived from the Pariser-Parr integrals are in close agreement with observed levels, which differ considerably from those calculated from the Parr-Mulliken non-empirical integrals.

Reasons are given for the belief that many new chemical reactions may be obtained in the excited electronic states of the molecules. By the examples of nitrobenzene, trans → cis isomerization of stilbene and azobenzene, by an interpretation of experimental results concerning acidity and basicity of certain bodies in the excited states, and the evaluation of the charges and dipole moments of the C==N group in different excited states, it is shown how the chemical and physicochemical properties of the molecule may vary from one state to another.
