Intermediate neglect of differential overlap method

To confirm equation (4), we used the FPT (Finite Perturbation Theory) INDO (Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap) method (39) to calculate the Jqjj for various values of torsion angles. A comparison of the experimental and calculated values is plotted in Figure 5. 

Ultraviolet Spectra. A comparison of UV spectra for phthalazines and related systems has been prepared and discussed in a comparative way. " The electronic spectra for phthalazine and other azanaphthalenes have been calculated by a modified INDO (intermediate neglect of differential overlap) method. ...

Hamiltonian is not known and, as for the nonrelativistic case, further approximations have to be introduced in the wavefunction, it is tempting to derive approximate computational schemes which are still sufficiently accurate but more efficient. Here we will only summarize those approximate methods that have been used frequently to obtain information about the electronic structure of molecules with lanthanide atoms, i.e. relativistically corrected density-functional approach, pseudopotential method, intermediate neglect of differential overlap method, extended Huckel theory, and ligand field theory. 

There are three modihed intermediate neglect of differential overlap (MINDO) methods MINDO/1, MINDO/2, and MINDO/3. The MINDO/3 method is by far the most reliable of these. This method has yielded qualitative results for organic molecules. However its use today has been superseded by that of more accurate methods such as Austin model 1 (AMI) and parameterization method 3 (PM3). MINDO/3 is still sometimes used to obtain an initial guess for ah initio calculations. 

The intermediate neglect of differential overlap (INDO) method was at one time used for organic systems. Today, it has been superseded by more accurate methods. INDO is still sometimes used as an initial guess for ah initio calculations. 

More sophisticated procedures involve taking the start MO coefficients from a semi-empirical calculation, such as Extended HUckel Theory (EHT) or Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap (INDO) (Sections 3.12 and 3.9). The EHT method has the advantage that it is readily parameterized for all elements, and it can provide start orbitals for systems involving elements from essentially the whole periodic table. An INDO calculation normally provides better start orbitals, but at a price. The INDO... 

Three versions of Modified Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap (MINDO) models exist, MINDO/1, MINDO/2 and MINDO/3. The first two attempts at parameterizing INDO gave quite poor results, but MINDO/3, introduced in 1975, produced the first general purpose quantum chemical method which could successfully... 

Various theoretical methods (self-consistent field molecular orbital (SCF-MO) modified neglect of diatomic overlap (MNDO), complete neglect of differential overlap (CNDO/2), intermediate neglect of differential overlap/screened approximation (INDO/S), and STO-3G ab initio) have been used to calculate the electron distribution, structural parameters, dipole moments, ionization potentials, and data relating to ultraviolet (UV), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR), photoelectron (PE), and microwave spectra of 1,3,4-oxadiazole and its derivatives <1984CHEC(6)427, 1996CHEC-II(4)268>. 

Modified intermediate neglect of differential overlap (MINDO/3) and modified neglect of differential overlap (MNDO) methods with full geometry optimization calculate triazol[4,5-, [l,2,3]triazole to possess antiaromatic structure with C h symmetry but not 1)2,5. In contrast, the aromatic structure with 1)2,5 symmetry is found advantageous for the 2,5-dioxide derivative <1991IZV1825>.
