ABSTRACTThe values of a free-electron eigenfunotion at the carbon nuclei of a conjugated hydrocarbon are found to satisfy a system of algebraic equations. These equations are similar in form to those obtained in the method known as the linear combination of atomic orbitale but only coincide with them for linear polyenes and benzene. The symmetry, degeneracy and energy of the eigenvectors of these free-electron equations correspond exactly to those of the free-electron wave functions found by the usual methods. From this correspondence, a theorem is deduced about the free-electron charge density in alternant hydrocarbons.

Abstract Fluorescence Quenching of Alternant and Non-alternant Polycyclic Hydrocarbons by Nitro Compounds Fluorescence quenching of polycyclic aromatic hydro­ carbons by nitromethane or nitrobenzene in fluid solutions is due to an electron transfer mechanism. The non diffusion controlled rate constant of quenching is very much greater for alternant than for non-alternant hydrocarbons with equal singlet excitation energy. This is explained by the known more positive reduction potential of non-alternant compared to alternant hydrocarbons.
