General introduction to molecular orbital( MO) method is afforded with emphasis of the actual utilizations. In this respect, the density functional theory( DFT) method is mainly employed here in particular among other MO calculation methods such as Hartree-Fock( HF) and the post HF ones. The way of preparation of the environment for the MO calculation, actually available softwares, and the way of inputs are to be first explained. Several examples revealing the utility of MO calculations are also mentioned: these include achievement of the energetically optimized molecular structure, its geometrical parameters, vibration analyses including the IR and the Raman scattering absorption intensities, thermochemical analyses including the temperature corrections, analyses of the MO patterns, the total electron density, atomic net charge, bond order, and spin densities. Furthermore, estimation of the NMR chemical shift and description of the singlet excitation spectrum are also afforded. Especially in the last part of the article, the theme concerning the adhesion is mentioned and importance of the long-range interaction between molecules as well as the calculation method for which is also to be described.
