Spin Transitions in Iron(II) Complexes

1996

Iron(II) has the 3d6 outer electronic configuration and hence its octahedral complexes may be either high-spin or low-spin. The high-spin configuration, t 2g 4 e g 2 , is adopted when relatively weak-field ligands are coordinated while the low-spin, t 2g 6 e g 0 , is obtained when strong-field ligands are involved. In Oh symmetry the ground states are 5T2g and lA1g, for the high-spin and low-spin configurations, respectively. While in most iron(II) six-coordinate complexes the symmetry is lower than Oh, these designations are generally adopted in the following sections for convenience. [Fe(H2O)6]2+ and [Fe(en)3]2+ (en = ethylenediamine) are typical examples of high-spin complexes, while [Fe…
