A newly developed self‐consistent‐field molecular orbital theory is described and tested. The intermediate neglect of differential overlap (INDO) approximation is used, and all interaction integrals are differentiated according to their dependence upon 2s and 2p AO's. The bonding parameter βl is reformulated so that the model is calibrated to only one specific molecular property, namely, the ionization energy of Hi. We expect that this model will not be biased toward any special families of molecules.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
