Abstract:The variable metric (VM) method is used to optimize molecular geometry in electronically excited states. A general expression for the first derivative of energy in the particular excited state is derived, considering configuration interaction of all singly excited configurations. A special expression for the excited states energy derivative is given for calculations with semiempirical methods of CNDO type. The geometry optimizations of a set of molecules in various excited states have been carried out by the CNDO/2 method. The results of computations have been discussed and compared with the available experimental data. A good agreement of the calculated geometries with the experimental ones has been shown in the first excited states and a relatively good agreement in the higher states, with some exceptions. Some special features of the proposed method are discussed.
