N2 - We consider the ground state (GS), the excited state on absorption (ESA), the virtual ground (VGS) and the deformed excited state (DES) of π-electron system in hexaene, retinal, retinal Schiff-base (RSB), protonated retinal Schiff-base (PRSB) or our model for rhodopsin chromophore, and we semiempirically calculate the following two kinds of force constants for the pairs of bonded atoms in each of the four π-electronic states: (1) the force constants of torsional vibrations; (2) those of the interactions between torsional and stretching vibrations. The calculations are carried out by our LCAO-ASMO-SCF-CI method for π-electrons, selecting such a part of the total energy of π-electron system that gives a significant contribution to the force constants.
