Color of charge-transfer complexes Charge-transfer complex

fig. 1 i2•pph3 charge-transfer complexes in ch2cl2. left right: (1) i2 dissolved in dichloromethane - no ct complex. (2) few seconds after excess pph3 added - ct complex forming. (3) 1 minute later after excess pph3 added, ct complex [ph3pi]i has been formed. (4) after excess i2 added, contains [ph3pi][i3]. many metal complexes colored due d-d electronic transitions. visible light of correct wavelength absorbed, promoting lower d-electron higher excited state. absorption of light causes color. these colors quite faint, however. because of 2 selection rules: the spin rule: Δ s = 0 on promotion, electron should not experience change in spin. electronic transitions experience change in spin said spin-forbidden, such in spin forbidden reactions. laporte s rule: Δ l = ± 1 d-d transitions complexes have center of symmetry forbidden - symmetry-forbidden or laporte-forbidden. charge-transfer complexes not experience d-d transitions. thus, these rules not apply and, in general, absorptions inte...
