Abstract
Methods are examined for calculating Inner-shell Eigenvalues from molecular orbital models which do not explicitly include core basis functions. If the “valence-orbital only” calculation is a good one, a rather straightforward method can be used to obtain core eigenvalues with a rms error of ±0.01 a.u. compared with ab-initio values. Even simpler methods can be used to reproduce trends among core eigenvalues. The AAMOM valence technique, and to a lesser extent, the INDO model, can be used to yield core eigenvalues for orbitals centered on carbon and nitrogen: for oxygen the agreement is poorer. Extended Huckel or Iterative Extended Huckel methods cannot be used for this purpose with any degree of confidence.
