โœฆ Synopsis


The geometrical structure, electronic states and g-tensor values of the hydrated Cu 2+ ion, [Cu(H20)6] 2+ complex, have been studied by means of ab initio MO and MRSDCI methods. The ground state potential energy surface calculated as functions of the axial and equatorial Cu-O bond distances (rax and req) show two energy minima which correspond to elongated and compressed structures of the [Ctl(H20)6 ]2+ complex. For the elongated structure, the optimized geometry and ratio of the bond lengths (rax//req) were in good agreement with the structure determined by ESR and the EXAFS experiments. On the basis of second-order perturbation theory, g-tensor components of the complexes were calculated with the natural orbitals obtained by an MRSDCI calculation. For the elongated structure, the gll value is larger than g โ€ข ( gll = 2.400 and g i = 2.098) which is in agreement with the ESR experiment.
