7. The theory, derived by A Anderson (J Chem Phys, 1975 62 1187) is similar to extended Huckel theory but includes a correction for two-body repulsion Geometry optimization was carried out with a modified Davidon-Fletcher-Powell technique The parameter set and examples of the application of this technique to optimize transition metal complexes may be found in
