28. As is the common practice, the negative of the energy for removal of an electron from a neutral molecule to produce the lowest energy positive ion is referred to as the HOMO energy. This energy is represented in different ways both experimentally and computationally. In the ionization experiments the HOMO energy is represented by the first ionization energy. In the electrochemistry experiments the HOMO energy is represented by the absolute first oxidation potential. Similarly, the absolute first reduction potential is the energy for addition of an electron, or the LUMO energy. In the computations in this work the HOMO energy is represented by the calculated ionization energy, which is calculated as the difference in total energy between the positive ion (or negative ion for the LUMO energy) and the neutral molecule. The relationship of these energies to Hartree- Fock orbital eigenvalues or Kohn-Sham orbital energies is not used in this work.
