Abstract
A reflecting microscope has been used to measure the absorption spectra, in polarized light, of a number of cobalt(II) compounds in which the ligands are arranged tetrahedrally. These compounds are Cs3CoCl5, cobalt di‐p‐toluidine dichloride, cobalt dipyridine dibromide, and cobalt dipyridine diiodide. The two transitions, 4A2→4T1(F) in the near infrared and 4A2→4T1(P) in the visible, have been compared in the different compounds and the effect of symmetry discussed. It was also found that the crystal spectra of all but Cs3CoCl5 are modified by interaction between the complexes in the crystal so that the energy levels are not accurately described by the field of the ligands only.Keywords
