Usually in semi-empirical methods, these integrals are
neglected or parameterized, and only valence shell electrons
are considered. The Hamiltonian operator takes the form [5]:

where Nv is total number of valence electrons in the molecule,

The AM1 and PM3 methods use Slater-type orbitals
(STOs) as basis set functions:

The simulation of optical absorption spectra were
performed using AM1, PM3 semi-empirical approaches.
Molecular structures of the molecules were optimized by
molecular-mechanics force field method (MM+) which is
particularly useful for carbon-based systems.

The orbitals fz and fy are centered on atom A, and orbitals fp
and fq are centered on atom B. CB is the core charge on atom
B, i.e. atomic number of atom B minus the number of inner-
shell electrons, and (yy|sBsB) is a two-electron, two-center
overlapping integral. The sB orbital is the valence s orbital on
atom B. Pzz and Ppq are called density matrix elements and
are defined as
We used the MM+-force field method because:
• It is very fast.
• May be used for large organic molecules.
• It gives simultaneously an information about values of total
energy and molecular geometry.

As a criterion of self-consistent convergence during the
numerical procedure we have chosen a value of energy gra-
dient to be equal to about 0.01 kcal/mol.
Following the calculated optimized molecular structure
quantum chemical calculations were done. Due to the rela-
tively large molecular formula and large amount of aromatic
rings we applied the semi-empirical quantum chemical meth-
ods. All the semi-empirical methods are fitted by choosing of
different forms of parameterization in the overlapping inte-
grals.

secular determinant. The element in which the fz and fy
orbitals are on the same atom constitutes one type and is
