Molecular Orbital Theory of Pentacoordinate Phosphorus

The electronic structure of some idealized PH5 geometries of D3h, C4v, and C, symmetries is analyzed. Each geometry is characterized by a low-lying nodeless orbital, three singly noded orbitals close in energy, and a high-lying doubly noded nonbonding orbital. The latter orbital is the only one significantly stabilized by the inclusion of 3d orbitals in the P basis set and also determines the r...

Orbital-Free Density Functional Theory for Molecular Structure Calculations

We give here an overview of the orbital-free density functional theory that is used for modeling atoms and molecules. We review typical approximations to the kinetic energy, exchange-correlation corrections to the kinetic and Hartree energies, and constructions of the pseudopotentials. We discuss numerical discretizations for the orbital-free methods and include several numerical results for il...

Absolute electronegativity and hardness correlated with molecular orbital theory.

The concepts of absolute electronegativity, chi, and absolute hardness, eta, are incorporated into molecular orbital theory. A graphic and concise definition of hardness is given as twice the energy gap between the highest occupied molecular orbital and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital. Useful correlations can now be made between chemical behavior, visible-UV absorption spectra, optical ...
