LOCAL STRUCTURE OF THE CuCu (EDTA) (H2O)2, 2H2O AMORPHOUS COMPLEX : A JOINT MAGNETIC, LAXS, AND MOLECULAR MECHANICS INVESTIGATION

1985

The short range order in the amorphous CuCu (EDTA) (H2O)2, 2H2O is studied by Large Angle X-ray Scattering (LAXS) and molecular mechanics. Three conformations of the complex molecule are shown to be energetically equivalent, two of which are simultaneously present in the amorphous material.
