“…12,13 The A 1 state is diamagnetic because it is composed of approximately 58% m J = 0, 21% m J = À4, and 21% m J = +4, 12 where the m J = 0 state is itself diamagnetic and the equal contributions of the m J = G4 states cancel out each other; this can also be mapped to spin and orbital contributions to the m J states, which can be calculated using Clebsch-Gordan coefficients 14 and can be measured experimentally. 15 On the other hand, compounds of different symmetry may not show a decrease to near-zero magnetic moment at low temperatures, signifying the presence of a degenerate paramagnetic ground state (E). For example, uranocene, [U(h 8 -C 8 H 8 ) 2 ], 16 has a magnetic moment of $2.6 m B at 300 K 17 that decreases to 1.35 m B at 4 K 18 : in this case, the D 8h symmetry of the solid-state structure splits the J = 4 spin-orbit multiplet into A 1 , E 1 , E 2 , E 3 , and B 1 + B 2 irreducible representations, for which E 3 (m J = G3) is the ground state.…”
