Set up the secular determinants for (i) azulene (3), (ii) acenaphthylene (4) within the Hückel approximation and using the out-of-plane C2p orbitals as the basis set.
The FEMO theory of conjugated molecules is crude and marginally better results are obtained with simple Huckel theory. (a) For a linear conjugated polyene with each of N carbon atoms contributing an electron in a 2porbital, the energies Ek of the resulting π molecular orbitals are given by:
Ek = α + 2β cos kπ/N+1 k = 1,2,3, ... N
Use this expression to estimate the resonance integral β for the series consisting of ethene, butadiene, hexatriene, and octatetraene given that ult raviolet absorptions from the HOMO, which is a bonding π orbital, to the LUMO, which is an antibonding π* orbital, occur at 61 500, 46 080, 39 750,and 32 900 cm- 1, respectively. (b) Calculate the π-electron delocalization energy, Edelcc = Eπ -n(α + β). of octatetraene, where Eπ, is the total π-electron binding energy and n is the total number of π-electrons.
What irreducible representations do the four H1s orbitals of CH4 span? Are there s and p orbitals of the central C atom that may form molecular orbitals with them? In SiH4, where 3d orbitals might be available, could these orbitals play a role in forming molecular orbitals by overlapping with the H1s orbitals?
