P9E.5 Set up the secular determinants for cyclobutadiene,
benzene, and cyclooctatetraene and diagonalize them by using
mathematical software. Use your results to show that the molecular
orbitals of monocyclic polyenes with an even number of carbon atoms
follow a pattern in which The molecular orbitals of lowest and
highest energy are non-degen erate. The remaining molecular
orbitals exist as degenerate pairs.
