rnDensity functional self-consistent spin-polarized calculations with the discrete variational method were performed to obtain the electronic structure of the paramagnetic complexes [CO(CN)S]~-, [R h(CN)5I3-, and [ II-(CN)~]~-of square-pyramidal geometry. All electrons were kept in the variational space. Electric-field gradients and magnetic hyperfine parameters at the metal site were computed with the molecular charge and spin densities obtained and compared with experimental values derived by electron paramagnetic resonance. It was found that the Fermi interaction is critically dependent on the angle between the axial and equatorial CN ligands. 0
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
