Abstract

An attempt is made to assess the value of the electronic properties of polycrystalline samples of copper(II) complexes of unknown crystal structure to predict the stereochemistry of the local copper(II) ion environment. The value of obtaining complementary data, namely, magnetic moments, e.s.r., and electronic spectra, is emphasised in order to produce the most reliable prediction of stereochemistry and is applied to systems containing the CuN4–6 chromophore.
