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.

Intramolecular [3 + 2]-cycloaddition reaction of push-pull dipoles across heteroaromatic pi-systems.

TL;DR: Push-pull dipoles generated from the Rh(II)-catalyzed reaction of diazo imides containing tethered heteroaromatic rings undergo successful [3 + 2]-cycloaddition across the 2,3-pi-bond to provide novel pentacyclic compounds in good to excellent yields in a stereocontrolled fashion.

Accessibility of the lowest quintet state of organic molecules through triplet-triplet annihilation; an indo ci study

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the triple-triplet annihilation of two metastable triplet states is sufficient for the creation of a particular excited state, provided that the sum of the excitation energies of the two triplets is sufficient to create the specific excited state.

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.
