We study the two-orbital Hubbard model in the limit of vanishing kinetic energy. The phase diagram in the V-J plane, with V and J denoting the interorbital hybridization and exchange coupling respectively, at half filling is obtained. A singlet(dimer)-triplet transition is found for a critical value of the ratio V/J. The entropy of formation, both in the mode and in the particle pictures, presents a jump at the same critical line in conformity with the suggested relation between criticality and entanglement.
