Molecular orbital theory originated from the theoretical work of German physicist Friederich Hund (1896-1997) and its apphcation to the interpretation of the spectra of diatomic molecules by American physical chemist Robert S. MuUiken (1896-1986) (Hund, 1926, 1927a, b Mulliken, 1926, 1928a, b, 1932). Inspired by the success of Heitler and London s approach, Finklestein and Horowitz introduced the linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) method for approximating the MOs (Finkelstein and Horowitz, 1928). The British physicist John Edward Lennard-Jones (1894-1954) later suggested that only valence electrons need be treated as delocalized inner electrons could be considered as remaining in atomic orbitals (Lennard-Jones, 1929).

Friedrich Hund, Peter Debye, Felix Bloch, Douglas Hartree, Eugene Wigner, Albert Einstein, Erich Huckel, Edward Teller, Nevil Mott, and John Lennard-Jones. The frequency of the appearance of his name in this book is the best testament to his great contribution to quantum chemistry. 

Sir John Edward Lennard-Jones (1894—1954). British physicist. Although trained as a mathematician, Lennard-Jones s work on molecular structure and intermolecular forces helped lay the foundation of modern theoretical and computational chemistry. 

Htickel started his treatment by choosing the electronic configuration of the ground state of the oxygen molecule proposed by John Edward Lennard-Jones (1929), even though he knew about the alternative suggestion by Hund and Mulliken ...
