What is Understanding Molecular Orbitals and UV Spectroscopy about?
A conjugated π-system has one π molecular orbital (MO) for each p-orbital that contributes, with the lowest energy MO having all p-orbitals in phase and each higher orbital having an additional phase change. As conjugation increases, the energy difference between successive π and π* MOs decreases, meaning absorption occurs at longer wavelengths. Ultraviolet (UV) and visible spectroscopy involve electronic transitions between occupied and unoccupied MOs, usually between the highest occupied MO (HOMO) and low
