Molecular orbitals of zinc phthalocyanine have been calculated with the help of a kind of extended Hückel technique. Coulomb and exchange integrals of the zinc atom have been approximated in a way equivalent to the valence state ionization energies of the particular metal orbital for a particular charge configuration. π‐electron charge densities over the atomic sites have been calculated and found in agreement with the observed results. π‐π* absorption (11000 cm −1 − 32000 cm −1 ) and charge transfer absorption (19000 cm −1 − 40000 cm −1 ) frequencies have also been calculated and found in agreement with the experiment.
