Abstract: | On Bis(phenanthroline) cobalt(II) Complexes Spectrophotometric investigations of Co(phen)2X2] complexes in the IR and UV/VIS region are described. The results of this investigations show cis octahedral arrangement of the ligands. From the v1- and v3-transitions of the electronic spectra the LF parameters B and Dq are calculated and from this the two electron transition v2 is estimated. Co(phen)2X2] complexes show symmetry equilibria between octahedral and tetrahedral forms in solutions by reason of complex disproportionation reactions. The green form of the chloride complex could be isolated and identificated as Co(phen)Cl2]. |
