✦ Synopsis

An intermediate coupling analysis of the low-energy 7r ~ a Rydberg transitions of hydrogen bromide, cyanogen bromide, acetylene bromide and alkyl bromides is presented. Exchange and spin-orbit coupling parameters are calculated and their variations discussed. The Br 5s orbital is delocalized in the larger alkyl bromides and Br 4p is heavily involved in lr bonding in acetylene and cyanogen bromides.
