An analysis of the temperature dependence (4–30 K) of the electron spin resonance (esr) spectra of substituted diphenylmethylenes (e.g. para-, para′-; methoxy, cyano, dimethylamino, and nitro) indicates all of these species have a triplet ground state. The variation in the zero-field splitting parameter D for this series of methylenes provides evidence that the average separation of the unpaired electrons is greatest for the unsymmetrically substituted derivatives, those having a strong para-electron-withdrawing substituent and a strong para′-electron-donating substituent. This result is explained in terms of a favourable contribution of charge-separated valence-bond structures, i.e., merostabilization.

<em>Some complexes of Ni(II) have been prepared with 2-thio-3-acetyl hydantoin (TAHN) and 2-formyl pyridine thiosemicarbazone (FPTS). On the basis of elemental analysis and molar conductivity, the complexes have been formulated as NiL<sub>2</sub>X<sub>2</sub>, where L = TAHN or FPTS and X = Cl<sup>–</sup>, Br<sup>–</sup>, NCS<sup>–</sup>, ClO<sub>4</sub><sup>–</sup>. The infrared spectra of complexes and free ligand reveal that the ligand TAHN is co-ordinated through sulphur and acetyl oxygen, while FPTS ligand co-ordinates through heterocyclic nitrogen and sulphur to Ni(II) metal ion. The magnetic moment of these complexes are found to be 3.20-3.25 B.M. The values are greater than value (2.828 B.M) corresponding to two unpaired electrons of a d<sup>8</sup>-system. The appearance of four absorption bands in their electronic spectra reveal, the tetragonal distortion in the octahedral symmetry of complexes. The zero field splitting parameter(D) and the other crystal field parameters like Dq<sub>(xy)</sub>, Dq<sub>(z)</sub>, Dt have been calculated. The results show that, the tetragonal distortion parameter (Dt) increases in the order of NCS<sup>– </sup>&lt; Cl<sup>–</sup> &lt; Br<sup>–</sup> while the zero field splitting parameter (D) also increases in the same order for both the planer ligands.</em>

The electron spin resonance (ESR) of Cr3+ in K1−xTlxAl(SO4)2·12H2O has been studied at 300 K and 9.45 GHz. The ESR spectrum for x between 30 and 90% shows several chromium complexes. The variation of the zero-field splitting parameter D suggests that monovalent ions play an important role in the trigonal distortion of the water octahedron around the trivalent metal ion in alums. - PASC: 76.30 F.

The Newman superposition model has been applied to second-order zero-field splitting parameter [Formula: see text] taken from the literature for Mn2+in Hg(ClO4)2· 6 H2O , M ″ SiF6·6 H2O (M ″= Fe, Co, Zn ) and M ″ NbOF5·6 H2O (M ″= Co, Zn ). In the calculations, the local lattice relaxation has been taken into account. It is shown that nearly the same value of intrinsic parameter b2=-0.057(8) cm-1is obtained.

ESR spectra of Fe+3 located at one of the aluminium sites in cordierite have been investigated at X- and K-band frequencies at room temperature. The spectra exhibit large zero-field splitting and have been fitted to a spin Hamiltonian of orthorhombic symmetry, having constants b20 = 14.6 ± 0.1 kG, b22 = 8.5 ± 0.1 kG, and isotropic g = 2.004 ± 0.002.
