Correlation Diagrams - Characteristics
The free-ion states are shown on the far left.
The extremely strong-field states are shown on the far right.
Both the free-ion and strong-field states can be reduced to irreducible representations.
![Page 5: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Correlation Diagrams – Irreducible Representations
Free ion terms as well as the strong-field states can be expressed using irreducible representations
Irreducible representation entails degeneracy and the symmetry of the terms

Correlation Diagrams – Irreducible Representations
Each free-ion irreducible representation is matched or correlated to a strong-field irreducible representation having the same symmetry (same label).
![Page 8: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Correlation Diagram - Characteristics
States are shown in order of energy
Lines connecting states of the same symmetry designation do not cross; also known as the non-crossing rule
![Page 9: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Correlation Diagrams – Noncrossing rule
Noncrossing rule: Strong interaction and repulsion of states having the same representations.

Tanabe-Sugano Diagrams – Rise of Racah parameters
There is a maximum of three spin-allowed transitions regardless of the dn configuration of the metal ion.

Tanabe-Sugano Diagrams – Rise of Racah parameters
The interelectronic repulsion is different for the various spectroscopic states in the ligand field due to spin-orbit coupling resulting into different energy values.
![Page 22: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Tanabe-Sugano Diagrams – Rise of Racah parameters
Usual values of the Racah parameter, B (free ion).
Metals in the first row:
+2 oxidation state = 700 – 1000 cm-1
+3 oxidation state = 850 – 1200 cm-1
Metals in the second and third row:
600 – 800 cm-1

Tanabe-Sugano Diagrams - Nephelauxetic Effect B is a function of the ligands which
surround the metal ion, and that is always lower in a complex than in the free metal ion due to more delocalized electrons in the complex than the free ion
Results to spreading out of electron cloud Decrease of energy required for pairing
depends on the ligand Lower energy, greater covalency

Tanabe-Sugano Diagrams – Basis of Nephelauxetic Series
The change in B from the free ion value is expressed as the nephelauxetic ratio, β , which is given by:
β = B’/B
Where: β = nephelauxetic ratio
B = Racah parameter of the metal ion
B’ = Racah parameter of the metal ion in the complex

Charge Transfers – Definition Movement of electron density from metal
orbitals to ligand orbitals and vice versa
Capable of masking d-d transitions in spectrum due to formation of intense bands
Very intense signals due to spin-allowed transitions
Usually observed in the UV region and sometimes in the visible region
![Page 38: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Charge Transfer Complex Also known as electron-donor-acceptor
complex Result of an electron transition Association of two or more molecules
such that a fraction of electronic charge is transferred between the molecular entities
Produces an unstable chemical bond
![Page 39: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Charge Transfers - Detection Color
reflective of the relative energy balance resulting from the transfer of electronic charge from donor to acceptor.
Solvatochromismchange in energy (and color) as the solvent
polarity is varied Intensity
highly intense since transitions are both Laporte and spin allowed
![Page 40: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Charge Transfers – Types
Ligand-to-Metal Charge Transfer (LMCT) arises from transfer of electrons from
MO with ligand like character to those with metal like character
transfer is predominant if complexes have ligands with relatively high energy lone pairs (or if the metal has low lying empty orbitals
halides promotes LMCT
![Page 41: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Charge Transfers - LMCT
-donor ligands in a complex stabilizes the t2g level and destabilizes the t2g* resulting to a decrease in the splitting energy
Examples:
KMnO4
K2Cr2O7
complexes having O2-, S2-, and halide ions as ligands
![Page 42: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)

Charge Transfer – Types
Metal-to-Ligand Charge Transfer (MLCT) arises from transfer of electrons from
MO with metal like character to those with ligand like character
transfer is predominant if complexes have ligands that are

Charge Transfer – MLCT
Metal-ligand interaction leads to the modification of the splitting energy since it now involves the t2g and eg* levels (greater splitting energy)
Examples:
complexes having ligands CO, CN-, SCN-, bipyridine, and
dithiocarbamate (S2CNR2-)
![Page 45: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)

Jahn-Teller Distortion – Definition
In 1937, Jahn and Teller showed that if a nonlinear molecule having an unequally populated degenerate orbitals, the electronic state should distort to lower the symmetry of the molecule and to reduce the degeneracy
Distortion leads to lower energy Can be in the form of elongation or
compression
![Page 47: spectroscopy of complexes - TS diagrams, CT, and JT distortion](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022052210/551e3a2d497959de398b4762/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
