TLDR
In this paper, the modified CNDO method was used to calculate the electronic spectra of cyclopentadiene, the Cyclopentadienide ion, pyrrole, furan, pyrazole, imidazole, 2-pyrrolecarboxaldehyde, and furfural.
Abstract
The modified CNDO method previously reported has been used to calculate the electronic spectra of cyclopentadiene, the cyclopentadienide ion, pyrrole, furan, pyrazole, imidazole, 2‐pyrrolecarboxaldehyde, and furfural. In general, the results obtained agree quite well with experimental data. Because the CNDO method treats explicitly all σ and π valence electrons of a molecule, the results of the calculations are used to discuss some of the σ–π interactions which previously could not be treated. The calculations are successful in reflecting changes in the electronic spectra of compounds as a result of extending conjugation or addition of a substituent.

The photochemical step of vision: The hydrogen bond and other associations

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown on the basis of quantum chemical and spectroscopic arguments that through a consideration of the hydrogen bond and other intermolecular associations affecting the Schiff-base of retinal in the ground and excited states, a new assessment can be made of the conditions related to the photochemical primary step of vision.

Use of the CNDO Method in Spectroscopy. I. Benzene, Pyridine, and the Diazines

TL;DR: In this article, the CNDO method was modified by substitution of semi-empirical Coulomb integrals similar to those used in the Pariser-Parr-Pople method, and by introducing a new empirical parameter κ to differentiate resonance integrals between σ orbitals from those between π orbitals.
