1 Themes Multiple model wave fns possible Different explanations of bonding Some you have seen before Errors vary (not consistently better or worse) Convenience varies Brain v. algebra v. computer Where is insight located? Begin describing brain-friendly MO Ψ g = N g (1s a + 1s b ) E g = H aa + H ab = E 1 s + V nn' J i j K J S ab y z 1 + S ab k 1 + S ab { K = potential energy integral Delocalization creates overlap density, φ a φ b K = interaction with incoming proton only significant if orbitals overlap (short R) only attractive if electron density enhanced in bond region (no node) Explanation ignores orbital contraction Contraction (ζ) changes E 1s & S ab & K, but not V nn or J (much) Energy Decomposition (1 au = 7. ev = 65 kj/mol) Take Home Message E can be sliced in different ways Changes in KE are important for chemistry Leftover E changes KE changes correlate with no node v. node between nuclei still ok w/ bonding overlap of orbitals containing 1 or electrons gives bond Change in KE, PE, E total due to contraction of two noninteracting H +1/ 1

2 H electrons Heitler-London model ( valence bond ) ψ H1, L = N Hab + bal Hαβ βαl Left-Right correlated electrons Not an independent particle model But not a flexible model Equivalent to aα bβ + bα aβ H electrons Hartree-Fock model ( molecular orbital ) ψ H1, L = N Hσ σl Hαβ βαl σ = N σ Ha + bl independent particle model electrons occupy same orbital equivalent to σα σβ H Comparison R R e E VB & E MO similar even though assumptions differ R long Break bond E VB E H (correct dissociation) E MO >> E H (incorrect) Convenience? Convenient for What? VB models Brain-friendly? Electrons paired in bonds (like Lewis structure) Delocalization problems: polar bonds, pi systems Algebra-unfriendly, computer-unfriendly MO models Brain-unfriendly? Every electron delocalized over full molecule Algebra-friendly, computer-friendly
