A. Determine the symmetries of the four pi orbitals of methylenecyclopropene and write the most general pi wave functions which possess these symmetries B. Set up the secular determinant derived from Huckel theory for this molecule C. The roots of the secular energy diagram for this molecule are X = -2.170, -0.311, +1.00, and +1.481. Draw an energy level iagram for this molecule and determine the delocalization energy of the neutral species . The wave function for the lowest pi MO is pisia = 0.278p1 +0.612p2 +0.524p3 + 524p4. Using Huckel approximation theory, determine the energy of this orbital in terms Dof alpha and beta CLS (5)
Electronic Transitions and Spectroscopy
The term “electronic” connotes electron, and the term “transition” implies transformation. In a molecule, the electrons move from a lower to a higher energy state due to excitation. The two energy states, the ground state and the excited state are the lowest and the highest energy states, respectively. An energy change is observed with this transition, which depicts the various data related to the molecule.
Photoelectron Spectroscopy
Photoelectron spectroscopy (PES) is a part of experimental chemistry. It is a technique used in laboratories that involves projecting intense beams of radiation on a sample element. In response, the element ejects electrons for which the relative energies are measured.
