The present study reports the theoretical vertical ionization potentials (IPs) for all the valence electrons in six XPY2 molecules by utilizing the corrected orbital energies calculated with three theoretical methods, namely, the ab initio Hartree–Fock (HF), and both the pure and hybrid density functional theory (DFT) methods at, respectively, the BLYP/6-311+G* and B3lYP/6-311+G* levels of theory. Evaluation of the numerical corrections to the orbital energies was achieved by comparisons with the IP values obtained via explicit computation of the energy differences between the neutral molecules and the corresponding radical cations (the ΔSCF method) and shows values from –0.9 to –1.9 eV for the HF, and positive values from 2.9 to 3.9 eV and from 1.8 to 2.4 eV for the pure and hybrid DFT methods, respectively. In contrast to the orbital energies, the ΔSCF method is shown to give consistent values among the three methods, as well as reasonable agreement with the experimental IP values.Key words: ionization potential, phosphorane, Koopmans' theorem, Janak's theorem.
