The electronic structure and spectrum of a model compound of a spiropyran were investigated using an all valence-electrons CNDO CI method. The π → π* electronic excitations are localized on a given half of the molecule. The photochromic process is discussed on the basis of charge densities and bond orders. © 1973.
