✦ Synopsis


The simple valence bond method is formulated in terms of fermion spin waves. For linear chains, rings containing 4n+2 atoms, and polyacenes, we obtain a close formal correspondence to mofecufar orbital theory of the Pariser-Parr-Popfe type. This correspondence however is not obtained for large condensed ring systems, rings containing 4n atoms, and non-alternants (molecules for which there is indeed relatively poor agreement between VB and MO ground state results).

## Abstract We comment on the paper [Song et al., J. Comput. Chem. 2009, 30, 399]. and discuss the efficiency of the orbital optimization and gradient evaluation in the Valence Bond Self Consistent Field (VBSCF) method. We note that Song et al. neglect to properly reference Broer et al., who publis
