Five statements for demythologization:
Nº 1.: The term “orbital” is a synonym for the term “One-Electron” Function (OEF)
Nº 2.: A single centered OEF is synonymous with “Atomic Orbital”. A multi centered OEF is synonymous with “Molecular Orbital”.
Orbital == OEF
AO MO

Nº 3.: 3 ways to express a mathematical function:• Explicitly in analytical form
(hydrogen-like AOs) • As a table of numbers
(Hartree-Fock type AOs for numerous atoms) • In the form of an expansion
(expression of an MO in terms of a set of AO)

Nº 4.: The generation of MOs (s) from AOs (-s) is equivalent to the transformation of an N-dimensional vector space where {}is the original set of non-orthogonal functions. After orthogonalization of the non-orthogonal AO basis set {} the orthogonal set {} is rotated to the another orthogonal set{}.

Nº 5.: There are certain differences between the shape of numerical Hartree-Fock atomic orbitals (HF-AO), the analytic Slater type orbitals (STO) and the analytic Gaussian type functions (GTF).
However , these differences are irrelevant to the final results as the MO can be expanded in terms of any of these complete sets of functions to any desired degree of accuracy.

Atomic orbital basis sets
![Page 13: Ab initio Reactant – Transition State Structure – Product 1.Selection of the theoretical model 2.Geometry optimization 3.Frequency calculation 4.Energy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649f585503460f94c7de8b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Basis set
• Basis functions approximate orbitals of atoms in molecule
• Linear combination of basis functions approximates total electronic wavefunction
• Basis functions are linear combinations of gaussian functions– Contracted gaussians– Primitive gaussians
![Page 14: Ab initio Reactant – Transition State Structure – Product 1.Selection of the theoretical model 2.Geometry optimization 3.Frequency calculation 4.Energy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649f585503460f94c7de8b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Slater-type orbitals (J.C. Slater)
– Represent electron density well in valence region and beyond (not so well near nucleus)
– Evaluating these integrals is difficult
• Gaussian-type orbitals (F. Boys)
– Easier to evaluate integrals, but don’t represent electron density well
– Overcome this by using linear combination of GTOs

Minimal basis setsA common naming convention for minimal basis sets is STO-XG, where X is an integer.
This X value represents the number of Gaussian primitive functions comprising a single basis function.
In these basis sets, the same number of Gaussian primitives comprise core and valence orbitals.
Minimal basis sets typically give rough results that are insufficient for research-quality publication,
but are much cheaper than their larger counterparts. Here is a list of commonly used minimal basis sets:
STO-2G STO-3G STO-6G STO-3G* - Polarized version of STO-3G
![Page 50: Ab initio Reactant – Transition State Structure – Product 1.Selection of the theoretical model 2.Geometry optimization 3.Frequency calculation 4.Energy.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070411/56649f585503460f94c7de8b/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Split-valence basis setsDuring most molecular bonding, it is the valence electrons which principally take part in the bonding. In recognition of this fact, it is common to represent valence orbitals by more than one basis function, (each of which can in turn be composed of a fixed
linear combination of primitive Gaussian functions). The notation for these split-valence basis sets is typically X-YZg. In this case, X represents the number primitive Gaussians comprising each core atomic orbital basis function.
The Y and Z indicate that the valence orbitals are composed of two basis functions each
Here is a list of commonly used split-valence basis sets:3-21g 3-21g* - Polarized 3-21+g - Diffuse functions 3-21+g* - With polarization and diffuse functions 6-31g 6-31g* 6-31+g* 6-31g(3df, 3pd) 6-311g 6-311g* 6-311+g* SV(P) SVP

Double, triple, quadruple zeta basis setsBasis sets in which there are multiple basis functions corresponding to each atomic orbital,
including both valence orbitals and core orbitals or just the valence orbitals, are called double, triple, or quadruple-zeta basis sets. Here is a list of commonly used multiple zeta basis sets:
multiple zeta basis sets:cc-pVDZ - Double-zeta cc-pVTZ - Triple-zeta cc-pVQZ - Quadruple-zeta cc-pV5Z - Quintuple-zeta, etc. aug-cc-pVDZ, etc. - Augmented versions of the preceding basis sets with added diffuse functions TZVPP - Triple-zeta QZVPP - Quadruple-zeta
