The INDO/2 version of the average hole potential (AHP) model is analyzed. The model is applied to study the geometric features, molecular inversion barriers, singlet‐triplet splittings, etc., of a few small carbonyl molecules (H 2 CO, HFCO, F 2 CO) in the 1,3 n π* states with partial as well as complete optimization of all geometric parameters in the excited states. The results are compared with those obtained by a simple hole‐potential (HP) model.
