Abstract

We analyze, in the Pariser–Parr–Pople (PPP) model of alternant hydrocarbons, how the charge and spin correlation functions (CF's) are related to the structure of a CI wave function and the MO's of the systems. The analysis is based on the fact that an uncorrelated electron present in an orbital does not contribute to the linked dynamically correlated parts of the CF's. By using the fact, simple rules are deduced predicting the covalent or ionic nature of the correlation structure in a low‐lying state with two correlated electrons. The rules predict that the singlet minus and triplet plus states are covalent, while singlet plus and triplet minus states are ionic, where the plus and minus mean the alternancy symmetry. The rules also give a prediction for the unknown charge and spin correlation structures between different sites.
