Exercises:
1) Vanadocene (V(Cp)2, Cp = cyclopentadienyl) has eff = 3.78 B. What is the oxidation state
of this complex?
A eff of 3.78 B indicates a d3 electronic configuration. This points to a vanadium oxidation
state of +2.
2) The effective magnetic moment of an octahedral Co(II) complex was found to be eff = 4.0
B. What ist the electron configuration of this complex?
Co(II) has a d7 configuration, and can thus have a low or high-spin configuration. The
expectation values for the two configurations (with S = 3/2 or S = ½), calculated with the spinonly formula,
eff  2 S ( S  1)  B
are 3.87 (h.s.) and 1.73 (l.s.). The experimental value of eff = 4.0 B is closer to the former
value. Hence, this Co(II) complex is a high-spin complex, t2g5eg2.
3) The room-temperature magnetic moment µeff for [Cr(en)3]Br2 is 4.75 µB. Is this complex
low-spin or high-spin (en = ethylenediamin = NH2CH2CH2NH2)?
In this complex chromium is divalent (Cr(II)). Cr2+ has a d4 configuration, and thus can have a
low or high-spin configuration. The expectation values for the two configurations (with S = 2
or S = 1), calculated with the spin-only formula,
eff  2 S ( S  1)  B
are 4.90 (h.s.) and 2.83 (l.s.). The experimental value of eff = 4.75 B is closer to the former
value. Hence, this Cr(II) complex is a high-spin complex, t2g3eg1.
4) For octahedral complexes, there are only certain dn configurations, which can adopt highspin and low-spin configurations. Which dn configurations are these? Are high-spin/low-spin
phenomena also possible for tetrahedral complexes?
For octahedral complexes, high-spin / low-spin phenomena are possible for d4, d5, d6, and d7
configurations. For tetrahedral complexes, high-spin / low-spin phenomena are feasible only
for d3, d4, d5, and d6 configurations. However, since t = 4/9 o, most tetrahedrally
coordinated complexes are high-spin.
5) The cobalt complex [Co(1-nor)4] (1-nor = 1-norbornene) is a tetrahedral complex with lowspin configuration (S = ½, d5). What are possible reasons for this unexpected behaviour?
1-norbornene is a sterically demanding ligand, the Co has a high oxidation state (i.e. +IV), the
1-norbornene ligand is a strong ligand (see spectrochemical series); all these features increase
t.
6) The magnetic moments of [Mn(H2O)6]2+, [Fe(H2O)6]3+, [MnCl4]2− und [FeCl4]− is
invariably 5.92 µB. What does that tell you about the geometrical and electronic structure of
the complexes? Why ist the spin-only formula in these cases so useful?
[Mn(H2O)6]2+: d5, t2g3eg2, high-spin, octahedral
[Fe(H2O)6]3+: d5, t2g3eg2, high-spin, octahedral
[MnCl4]2–: d5, e2t3, high-spin, tetrahedral
[FeCl4]–: d5, e2t3, high-spin, tetrahedral.
The complexes have an A ground term. (L = 0).

moment?:
a) V3+, b) Cr3+, c) Ti4+, d) Fe3+ (low-spin), e) Fe3+ (high-spin)

Fe3+, low-spin (2T2g), see the Table below.
