Hi everyone.

I have seen in different sources that there could be 2 approaches to calculate the HOMO-LUMO gap of a compound from the data obtained via UV-Vis spectrocopy.

I've seen people doing it from the absorption maxima and I've seen others do it from the absorption onset.

Could someone tell me, please, what would be the advantages, disadvantages, or theory omissions when using these 2 approaches???

Thanks a lot in advance
