“…This tempted us to take up a few biologically important, analytically suitable and optically active macrocyclic paramagnetic complexes: [L 3 M] 2+ {M=V(II), Ni(II)}, and [L 3 Cr] 3+ where L=2,2 -bipyridine, which were known to exhibit MLCT phenomenon (11)(12)(13). Accurate computations of their NMR, ESR and NQR (14)(15)(16)(17) parameters had become possible by DFT only recently (18)(19)(20).…”
