Inorganic Chemistry
Provide the oxidation state, electron count, and geometry of the following complexes. Also provide the crystal field splitting for each one. Be sure to label the orbitals. [W(OMe)_6] CuCl_4 Pt(pph_3)_2 Cl_2
Use crystal field theory to work out the d-orbital splittings and electron occupancy for the following complexes: a) [Cr(CN)6]3- b) [Ni(Cl)4]2- (This is a tetrahedral complex) c) [Pd(Cl)4]2- (This is a square planar complex)
Use the concepts of crystal field theory to predict the highest-energy orbital or group of orbitals among the five d orbitals when a transition metal ion is placed in the following type of ligand field environments (assuming conventional axes definition is used) Draw the geometry and draw the highest energy orbital (label: axis and orbital) to show how your came to your conclusion. Square planar: Trigonal bipyramidal:
3026 Inorganic Chemistry 1. Propose an 18e-structure for the following metal/ligand combinations. Use at least one of each metal and ligand listed. Complexes must be neutral. Don't use more than 2 metal centers. Clearly show your electron counting. Ligands are shown without charges, please indicate the proper ligand charge in your electron counting. Draw a reasonable structure showing the geometry about the metal center(s). a. Ir, Cp, CENME
