The description in the literature is very misleading. 6-31++G** is an extended basis set, it is in principle unable to say atomic coefficients in a MO.

If you need to discuss coefficients of atomic orbitals in the pi MOs, you should examine coefficients of natural atomic orbital (NAO), which has one-to-one correspondence to atomic orbital.

Regarding HOMO-LUMO Coefficient.

I want to calculate the HOMO-LUMO coefficient for each atom of my molecules. I am using Gaussian software for calculations. As I can see in multiwfn manual, I can get the orbital percentage but not getting the HOMO-LUMO coefficient. Herein, I have attached an image of a reported molecule depicting the HOMO and LUMO coefficient for each atom. Please help me regarding this.
