Hybridization for

PM3/TM is an extension of the PM3 method to include d orbitals for use with transition metals. Unlike the case with many other semiempirical methods, PM3/TM s parameterization is based solely on reproducing geometries from X-ray diffraction results. Results with PM3/TM can be either reasonable or not depending on the coordination of the metal center. Certain transition metals tend to prefer a specific hybridization for which it works well. 

PM3/TM is an extension of the PM3 method to transition metals. Unlike the parameterization of PM3 for organics, PM3/TM has been parameterized only to reproduce geometries. This does, of course, require a reasonable description of energies, but the other criteria used for PM3 parameterization, such as dipole moments, are not included in the PM3/TM parameterization. PM3/TM tends to exhibit a dichotomy. It will compute reasonable geometries for some compounds and completely unreasonable geometries for other compounds. It seems to favor one coordination number or hybridization for some metals. 

The structural facts that benzene is planar all of the bond angles are 120° and each car bon IS bonded to three other atoms suggest sp hybridization for carbon and the frame work of CT bonds shown m Figure 11 3a... 

An important approach to the graphic representation of molecules is the use of a connection table. A connection table is a data base that stores the available bond types and hybridizations for individual atoms. Using the chemical formula and the connection table, molecular stmctures may be generated through interactive graphics in a menu-driven environment (31—33) or by using a linear input of code words (34,35). The connection table approach may be carried to the next step, computer-aided molecular design (CAMD) (36). 

Self-Test 2.7A Write Lewis structures contributing to the resonance hybrid for the acetate ion, CH ,CC)2. The structure of CH COOH is described in Example 2.4 the acetate ion has a similar structure, except that it has lost the final H atom while keeping both electrons from the O -H bond. 

Self-Test 2.7B Write Lewis structures contributing to the resonance hybrid for the nitrite ion, N02. ... 

Both NH, and NH24 are angular species, but the bond angle in NH2" is less than that in NH2+. (a) What is the reason for this difference in bond angles (b) Take the x-axis as lying perpendicular to the plane of the molecule. Does the N2px orbital participate in the hybridization for either species Briefly explain your answer. 

Since compounds with six electrons in the outer shell of an atom are usually not stable, the A—B—C system is actually one canonical form of a resonance hybrid, for which at least one other form can be drawn (see Table 15.3). 1,3-Dipolar compound can be divided into two main types ...

Determine the chemical formulas and Lewis structures of these two substances. Describe then-bonding completely, including the geometry and hybridization for each carbon atom. 

It cannot be too firmly emphasised, however, that the ethanoate anion does not have two possible, and alternative, structures which are rapidly interconvertible, but a single, real structure (19ab)—sometimes referred to as a hybrid—for which the classical (canonical) structures (19a) and (19b) are less exact, limiting approximations.
