Abstract:
Infrared and Raman spectra of L-citrullinium perchlorate crystals have been recorded at room temperature. The vibrational assignments of the observed wavenumbers are proposed on the basis of group theoretical analysis. The presence of carbonyl group indicates that the molecule exists in the ionic form. The shifting of stretching and bending wavenumbers indicates the presence of extensive hydrogen bonding in the crystal. The anion fundamentals however continue to be degenerated. This suggests that its symmetry is not affected in the crystal.

Crystal Field Theory - Octahedral Complexes
To explain the observed behavior of transition metal complexes (such as colors), a model involving electrostatic interactions between the electrons from the ligands and the electrons in the unhybridized d orbitals of the central metal atom has been developed. This electrostatic model is crystal field theory (CFT). It helps to understand, interpret, and predict the colors, magnetic behavior, and some structures of coordination compounds of transition metals.
