Abstract A CNDO and INDO formalism is presented that can be used for any atom combination up to bromine under inclusion of the first transition metal series. The semiempirical parameters were chosen to reproduce results ofab initio calculations on metalorganic compounds. The calculational results are invariant to rotations of the coordinate system but not to a general transformation into other basis functions. The one-center Coulomb-expressions were selected in order to include intraatomic correlation contributions. Within the CNDO model this could be achieved by the scaled monopole termF 0, while in the INDO framework the one-center Coulomb integrals are given as a sum of the monopole-contributionF 0 and higher multipole contributions expressed as a linear combination of Slater-Condon parameters. The invariance problem in the case of local rotations within the INDO approximation was solved by considering the combination of one-center Coulomb and exchange integrals as a function ofl but independent ofm. The two-center electron-electron interaction terms were calculated via the Dewar-Sabelli, Ohno-Klopman relation. Penetration effects were treated according to Fischer and Kollmar. For the resonance integralH μv AB parameters are used which carry information related to the directed nature of the chemical bond by using optimized Klondyke functions. The core-core repulsion is constructed as a superposition of a soft potential function, describing polarization effects of the atomic cores, and a hard repulsion function, avoiding the collapse of the atomic cores with decreasing distance.
