In chemistry, HOMO and LUMO are types of molecular orbitals. The acronyms stand for highest occupied molecular orbital and lowest unoccupied molecular...

referred to as the HOMO and LUMO, respectively. The difference of the energies of the HOMO and LUMO is called the HOMO-LUMO gap. This notion is often the...

orbital theory is an application of molecular orbital theory describing HOMO–LUMO interactions. In 1952, Kenichi Fukui published a paper in the Journal...

photosensitizers' large de-localized π-systems, which lowers the energy of HOMO and LUMO orbitals to promote photoexcitation. While many photosensitizers are...

orbitals the HOMO of the diene (HOMOdiene) and the LUMO of the dienophile (LUMOdienophile) are more similar in energy than the HOMOdienophile and the LUMOdiene...

there is extensive conjugation, causing the energy gap between the HOMO and LUMO to decrease, bringing the absorption band from the UV to the visible...

first vertical ionization energy and electron affinity to the HOMO and LUMO energies, although both the derivation and the precise statement differ from...

the HOMO and LUMO. Fukui functions are related in part to the frontier molecular orbital theory (also known as the Fukui theory of reactivity and selection...

boron's p orbital in the HOMO and the substantial Lewis acidic character at boron in the LUMO. Chemically, borole is reactive and unstable in ambient conditions...
