Question

Problem Set 4. Due Aug 27th (315 points) Name: S.I.D #: 1. The orbitals for an ML5 fragment are shown below. Just using orbital overlaps (not full symmetry derivation), derive the MO diagram of an oxygen atom interacting with the ML5 fragment (e.g. O=ML5, 20 points), and draw the new orbitals. Neglect the O 2s. Determine bond order in the metal oxygen bond for the following metals: Ti(IV), Ti(III), Zr(II), Fe(III), Pt(IV) (5 points each); note that the oxidation state is for the final oxo complex. Which complexes do you predict will be most stable (10 points)?
