Tuning electronic eigenvalues of benzene via doping

Using variable atomic numbers within molecular grand-canonical ensemble theory, the highest occupied Kohn-Sham eigenvalue of isoelectronic benzene derivatives is tuned. The performed transmutational changes correspond to the iterative doping with boron and nitrogen. The molecular Fukui function proves to be a reliable index in order to predict the changes in the highest occupied molecular orbital eigenvalue due to doping. (C) 2007 American Institute of Physics.
