Electronic energy levels of XCl2–4[X = Mn, Co, Cu] calculated by conventional and Xα Hartree–Fock methods

Abstract
SCF m.o. calculations are reported for the molecules MnCl2– 4, CoCl2– 4 and CuCl2– 4 at the SCF– level and also at the ab initio gaussian level using a large basis set. The results agree quite well with the observed ESCA ionisation energies and X-ray fluorescence energies, permitting assignments of the spectra to be made. Changes in electronic structure across the series are discussed.
