Abstract: | The electron density distribution in potassiumbis-(carbonato)cuprate(II) has been analyzed using x-ray diffraction data from an earlier structure determination. While the
copper-ligand geometry is close to square planar the deformation density near the metal is strongly asymmetric. There are
local maxima near the copper atom along the line of the Cu-K vectors. These resemble features found in corresponding regions
in normal length metal-metal bonds. The observation is consistent with the long range nature of the Coulomb potential associated
with the potassium ion. |
