Geometric modeling and geometric optimization of Fe(III)-1,10-phenantroline (Fe-Phen), Ni II)-1,10-phenantroline (Ni-Phen) and Zn(II)-1,10-phenantroline (Zn-Phen) compounds have been carried out computing using the semi-empirical method of PM3. The spectral measurements and the study of complex electronic compositions using the UV-Vis spectrophotometer and simulation of ZINDO/s (Zerner's Neglect of Differential Overlap) calculations. The optimum result of the geometry of complex molecule found there is a change of charge in each complex with stable energy. The UV-Vis spectra measurements showed λmax in the Fe-Phen complex: 315.50 nm, Ni-Phen complex: 325.00 nm and Zn-Phen complex: 315.00 nm. The electronic transition occurring at these three complexes shows the transition characteristics of electrons at the level of the molecular orbitals π to π* and the degree of the molecular orbitals n to π⃰. Electron transition energy in complex orbital molecules can be observed in the energy changes of each molecular orbitals.
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.
