Thus, S and P terms will be unaffected and they give A1 and T1 terms, respectively. Orbital multiplicity of the free ion terms is retained in the aggregate of component terms. Thus, an F term (L = 3, orbital multiplicity = 7) splits into one singlet (A2) and two triplet (T1 and T2) terms, maintaining a total orbital degeneracy of (1+3+3) or 7. Spin multiplicity of the term and its components are same because the spin state of an electron is not disturbed by the symmetry (Oh, Td, etc.) of ligand field.Slide3

Splitting of D and F Terms in Tetrahedral and Octahedral Symmetries
Hole concept suggests an inversion of term splitting between dn and d10-n configurations. For example, a d9 metal ion has an electron vacancy or “hole” in its d level and thus can be regarded as the inverse of a d1 arrangement. An inversion of term splitting also occurs between tetrahedral and octahedral symmetries. Since ligand fields of these two symmetries produce inverse splitting patterns for d orbitals, any free ion term will also split into new terms by tetrahedral and octahedral fields, but the energy ordering will be opposite for two symmetries.

Orgel Diagrams
Orgel diagrams show the energies of terms as a function of ligand field strength. With the help of Orgel diagrams, the number of spin allowed absorption bands can be predicted in the UV/Visible spectrum of a complex. Orgel Diagram for Free Ion D Ground State From this diagram, we can see why one absorption is observed in the electronic spectra of d1, d4, d6 and d9 octahedral and tetrahedral complexes.Slide5

Orgel Diagram for Free Ion F Ground State
From this diagram, we can see why three absorptions are observed in the electronic spectra of d2, d3, d7 and d8 octahedral and tetrahedral complexes. Labels on Orgel diagrams do not include spin multiplicity designations. Spin multiplicities must be added when discussing specific transitions. 0Slide6

▪ At increased field strengths, the lines describing the T1g(F) and T
1g(P) terms curve repel away from one another; there is interaction between terms of the same symmetry and they are not allowed to cross (non-crossing rule). The condition of no interaction is shown by dashed lines.Orgel Diagram for Free Ion F Ground StateElectronic Spectra of 3d Transition Metal Complexes [M(H2O)6]2+Slide7
