Abstract

The outer-valence ionization potentials, low-lying electronically excited states, and 1J(CC) nuclear spin-spin coupling constants of bicyclobutane, tricyclopentane, tricyclohexane, and octabisvalene have been investigated at the ab initio level by using the outer-valence Green function (OVGF), random-phase approximation (RPA), and equations-of-motions (EOM) approaches, which incorporate the main dynamical correlation effects. A comprehensive theoretical prediction of these spectroscopic observables is presented, which shows several interesting aspects stemming from the unique electronic structure of the bridge bond. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
