Abstract

Energy differences, ΔX s−t (X = E, H, and G) (ΔX s−t = X(singlet) − X(triplet)) between singlet (s) and triplet (t) states of C12H8M were calculated at B3LYP/6-311+G*. The DFT calculations indicated that the ΔG s−t between singlet (s) and triplet (t) states of C12H8M were increased from M = C to M = Pb. The ΔG s−t of C12H8M was compared with its analogue C4H4M through replacement of heavy atoms from M = C to M = Pb. Configurations of the electrons in orbitals (σ2 or π2) for the singlet state of C12H8M were discussed.
