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.

Electronic states and transitions in C60 and C70 fullerenes

TL;DR: It is concluded that while C60 is important in aiding understanding of the main features in electronic spectroscopy of fullerenes, its spectra are deeply Influenced by its high symmetry and are very peculiar.

Electronic Excitations in Aggregates of Bacteriochlorophylls

TL;DR: In this article, the structure of a tightly coupled circular hexadecamer and a loosely coupled octamer of BChls has been investigated by means of INDO/S-CI calculations, and the results provide a detailed description of the properties of electronic states in the BChl aggregates (energies, dipole and transition dipole moments) that are relevant for the biological function.

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.
