  1. Quantum Mechanics & Molecular Structure Quantum Mechanics : Quantum mechanics is the foundation of all chemistry and biology. Statistical mechanics rests on the foundation of quantum mechanics and provides the basis of thermodynamics. “The ultimate aim of the modern movement in biology is in fact to explain all biology in terms of Physics and Chemistry….. Quantum mechanics, together with our empirical knowledge of chemistry, appears to provide us with a ‘foundation of certainty’ on which to build biology.” Francis Crick Schrodinger equation : Y(x,y,z,t) Y2(x,y,z,t)DxDyDz : HY = EY

  2. Quantum Mechanics can be extended to explains and predicts Lewis model and VSEPR model rationalized the structure and bonding qualitatively. . Molecular Orbital (MO) – Quantal Picture of chemical bond CH4 H2

  3. Quantum Mechanical solution of molecules : 1. Born-Oppenheimer Approximation : Frozen Nuclei, Fleeing Electrons Then, 1) consider the nuclei “frozen” and solve the Schrodinger Eqn. for electrons. Then, 2) consider the function Eel(Rnu) to be the potential energy function fo nuclei. CH4 H2

  4. Exact solution for Molecular Orbitals: This is the case that the exact solution can be obtained with Born-Oppenheimer approximation.

  5. Exact solution for Molecular Orbitals: H2+ ion Energy level.

  6. 2. LCAO Approximation : The result of H2+ indicates that, for sg1s MO, when the electron is near one nucleus A the ground state wave function resembles a 1s atomic wave function YA1s when the electron is near one nucleus A the ground state wave function resembles a 1s atomic wave function YB1s For all the other Mo’s we can apply the same approximation and LCAO can predict Homonuclear Diatomic Molecules : H2, He2 LCAO: Ymol = CAYA1s + CBYB1s For homodinuclear molecule, then , wave functions are electron probability becomes cf. electron probability of none interacting system

Another approximation • Two atomic orbitals contribute significantly to bond formation only if their atomic energy levels are very close. • Two atomic orbitals contribute significantly to bond formation only if they have substantial overlap. • Molecular orbitals form only with atomic orbitals of the most outer shell.

  14. Molecular Orbitals from p-orbitals

  15. Another approximation • Two atomic orbitals contribute significantly to bond formation only if their atomic energy levels are very close. • Two atomic orbitals contribute significantly to bond formation only if they have substantial overlap. • Molecular orbitals form only with atomic orbitals of the most outer shell. • the average energy level of a bonding-antibonding pair of molecular orbital is close to the original atomic orbitals • the energy difference between a bonding-antibonding pair becomes greater as the overlap of the atomic orbital increases.
