Abstract Semi empirical CNDO and “ab initio” methods are applied to the analysis of syn-anti isomerization mechanism of formaldoxime. Semi empirical calculations are carried out with complete geometry optimization and lead to predicted inversion barrier equal to 37.5 kcal/mole. A bicentric partitioning of the total energy and the expression of the density matrix in hybride basis set reveal the chemical origin of the shape of the potential line.
