For coordination compounds, how does one
measure…
Magnitude of d-d splitting?
Magnitude of charge transfer (CT) transitions?
MO energy levels?
Extent of M-L orbital overlap?
Electronic environment (oxidation state, Zeff)?

X-ray absorption spectroscopy
(XAS)can be used to determine all of
these things simultaneously!
What is XAS?
X-ray
Absorption Spectroscopy
High energy
photons
eject core e-s
(1s, 2s, etc.)
Scan over a spectrum, measure
absorbance of photons that
eject e-s or fluorescence of
photons emitted when valence
e-s relax into holes

Thank you to Chris Kim, Chapman U., for providing most of this slide!
Some definitions…
XANES: X-ray absorption near-edge structure is the
region of the XAS spectrum leading up to and at the
K-edge of an element.
K-edge: The energy required to eject a 1s electron
(akin to ionization energy, but for core electrons).
Pre-edge features: Peaks in the XANES spectrum
corresponding to electronic transitions from core
electrons to bound states that occur slightly below the
K-edge energy.

Oxidation State:
K-edge energies
shift when an
element is oxidized
or reduced or Zeff
changes
Bond lengths:
Can be determined via
EXAFS (another type of
XAS experiment not
discussed here)
Identify Ligand:
Useful for bioinorganic systems
or when identity of ligand is ambiguous
Orbital mixing
Extent of M-L overlap can be determined
from spectral features in the pre-edge region
Coordination number/symmetry:
Can be determined from XANES and EXAFS
In situ experiments are possible:
Extremely useful for dilute samples such
as probing a metal catalytic site in an enzyme;
Often non-destructive
