The change of an electronic state near the insulator-metal transition is studied by an effective Hamiltonian obtained from the highly correlated {ital p}-{ital d} mixing model. The {ital d}-electron freedom is reduced to only its spin freedom. The model becomes a modified Kondo model in the sense that the spin interaction between the {ital p} and {ital d} electrons is momentum dependent, and its strength and dependence on momentum are correlated with the kinetic term of the {ital p} electron. The results show that a tail structure at the top of the occupied {ital p} band is induced and a new narrow band develops at the Fermi level, which is split from the main {ital p} band. The effects of a nonbonding band are also discussed.
