and

Coordination Chemistry III: Multi-Electron States, Tanabe-Sugano Diagrams

Chemistry 107 Lecture 28

Explanation: In Lecture 26 the concepts of UV-Vis spectroscopy, selection rules, are presented as well as some spectra of transition metal complexes. An example of generating a micro state chart for the d2 free ion is also presented.
Explanation: The micro state chart for the d2 metal ion is concluded and the idea of how electronic states energies are effected by the ligand field is introduced.

pdf Supporting Materials: Chemistry 107 lecture supplements: (a) The first set of notes introduces the concepts of UV-Vis spectroscopy, selection rules, and presents some spectra of transition metal complexes supporting Lecture 26. An example of generating a micro state chart for the d2 free ion is presented. 26 pages. (26_Ch11_Coord Chem III Electronic.pdf). (b) The second set of notes, a mere 11 pages, introduces the Tanabe-Sugano diagrams and demonstrates their use. (27_Ch11_Coord Chem III TS Diagrams.pdf) (c) The last set of notes continues the discussion of Tanabe-Sugano diagrams. 22 pages. (28_Ch11_Coord Chem III TS cont.pdf)
