摘要

The electronic properties, in particular the role of 7- and 8-membered rings in the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO)-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) gap, of stable C-120 isomers derived from the general Stone-Wales rearrangement have been investigated using the discrete-variational X alpha MO method. It is found that the adjacent 7-membered rings located in the waist region of the isomers tend to have positive effective charges, and that the electron polarization induced by the adjacent 7-membered rings makes the HOMO level higher, which reduces the HOMO-LUMO gap of the C-120 isomers.
