A computational procedure which introduces some electron correlation into quantum mechanical calculations is described. Diverse applications are given. Among these, the method gives values of 65.6 kcal/mole for the dissociation energy of LiH, 62.0 kcal/mole for the ring‐opening energy of cyclopropane, and 9.123 × 15 5 dynes/cm for the O–H stretching force constant of H 2 O. These results, and others given, suggest that our procedure has great potential and provides a very economical method for introducing electron correlation into a wave‐function.
