Variable Integrals Method. II

Abstract
A new type of semitheoretical formula for core resonance integrals, which includes no arbitrary adjusting molecular parameters, is derived. Using this new semitheoretical formula a modified Pariser–Parr–Pople type SCFMO method, the variable integrals method II (VI/2), is proposed, and applied to various types of molecules from ethylene, formaldehyde, to benzene derivatives, heterocyclic systems, and so on. The agreement between the calculated transition energies by the VI/2 method and the observed ones is quite satisfactory and in not a few cases more improved results have been obtained by this method than by the other semiempirical MO methods.
