  10. Electronic Spectroscopy of Transition Metal Complexes Chemistry 412 Experiment 1

  11. - n / cm-1 (frequency) What is electronic spectroscopy? Absorption of radiation leading to electronic transitions within a molecule or complex Absorption Absorption [Ru(bpy)3]2+ [Ni(H2O)6]2+ 104 10 ~14 000 25 000 50 000 200 400 700 visible UV UV visible l / nm (wavelength) UV = higher energy transitions - between ligand orbitals visible = lower energy transitions - between d-orbitals of transition metals - between metal and ligand orbitals

  12. Absorption maxima in a visible spectrum have three important characteristics number (how many there are) This depends on the electron configuration of the metal centre 2. position (what wavelength/energy) This depends on the ligand field splitting parameter, Doct or Dtet and on the degree of inter-electron repulsion intensity This depends on the "allowedness" of the transitions which is described by two selection rules

  13. Energy of transitions Excited State molecular rotations lower energy (0.01 - 1 kJ mol-1) microwave radiation electron transitions higher energy (100 - 104 kJ mol-1) visible and UV radiation Ground State molecular vibrations medium energy (1 - 120 kJ mol-1) IR radiation During an electronic transition the complex absorbs energy electrons change orbital the complex changes energy state

  15. The energy of the absorption by [Ti(OH2)6]3+ is the ligand-field splitting, Do ES ES eg eg hn Do GS GS t2g t2g d-d transition complex in electronic excited state (ES) complex in electronic Ground State (GS) [Ti(OH2)6]3+lmax = 510 nm Do is  243 kJ mol-1 20 300 cm-1 An electron changes orbital; the ion changes energy state
