Electron Correlation Effects

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.

Homo Lumo

Ab initio calculations in the framework of the methodology of Pople et al. have been performed on indole, isoindole, benzofuran. and isobenzofuran. Several molecular properties (dipole moments, n. m. r. chemical shifts, stabilities, and reactivities) correlate well with calculated indices (charge densities, HOMO-LUMO separation). The calculations failed to give magnitudes of first ionization potentials, although the correct trends are reproduced, i. e. giving higher values to more stable isomers. Some of the obtained results (charge densities, dipole moments) parallel CNDO/2 values.
