Abstract

With little modification, we may use the N2O4 valence-bond and molecular orbital theory of Sections 7-1 and 7-2 to examine the magnetic behaviour for some binuclear Cu(II) complexes with (3d)9 configurations for the Cu2+ ions. As examples, we shall consider the Cu(II)-carboxylate, Cu(II)-chloro and Cu(II)-hydroxo dimers (Cu2 (RCO2)4, L n with n = 0 or 2, and Cu2X 2+2 with X = Cl or OH. Their geometries are displayed in Figure 8-1. Initially we shall not include the copper 4s and 4p orbitals in the bonding schemes.
