The technique with inclusion of overlap charges, as described in previous papers of this series, has been extended to evaluate the -bond energies, heats of formation, and resonance energies of some conjugated hydrocarbons. The success of the method has been supported by comparing the results with experimental data and with results obtained by others using Pople's SCF-MO method.
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.
