Abstract:
Using EPR and HYSCORE spectroscopies in conjunction with ab initio calculations, we assess the structure of framework-bound monomeric hydroxo-CuII in copper-loaded chabazite (CHA). The species is an interfacial distorted square-planar [CuIIOH(O-8MRs)3] complex located at eight-membered-ring windows, displaying three coordinating bonds with zeolite lattice oxygens and the hydroxo ligand hydrogen-bonded to the cage. The complex has a distinctive EPR signature with g = [2.072 2.072 2.290], CuA= [30 30 410] MHz, and HA = [-13.0 -4.5 +11.5] MHz, distinctively different from other CuII species in CHA.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...

Crystal Field Theory - Tetrahedral and Square Planar Complexes
Crystal field theory (CFT) is applicable to molecules in geometries other than octahedral. In octahedral complexes, the lobes of the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals point directly at the ligands. For tetrahedral complexes, the d orbitals remain in place, but with only four ligands located between the axes. None of the orbitals points directly at the tetrahedral ligands. However, the dx2−y2 and dz2 orbitals (along the Cartesian axes) overlap with the ligands less than the dxy,...
