✦ Synopsis


The PPP CI molecular-orbital theory for three-dimensional systems has been applied to study the UV spectrum of the truncated icosahedral CeO molecule. We have found that only the one-electron transitions to T,, symmetry (4.2270,4.7498 and 6.5182 eV) have oscillator strengths different from zero. Using a bond-order-bond-length relation in SCF iteration connected to the PPP method, we have obtained two kinds of bond lengths r, = 1.439 A and rz = 1.398 A, which correspond to the edges of the regular pentagon and the edge of a hexagon not lying on a pentagon,
