Mm. Camposvallette et al., VIBRATIONAL STUDY AND SEMIEMPIRICAL CALCULATION FOR THE HEXAAZACYCLOPHANE COPPER(II) COMPLEX, Vibrational spectroscopy, 14(1), 1997, pp. 71-78
The FTIR and Raman spectra of the hexaazacyclophane Cu(II) complex wer
e recorded, and analyzed from a normal coordinate treatment by using a
n extended number of internal coordinates. The CuN force constant equa
l to 1.0 mdyn Angstrom(-1) represents satisfactorily the CuN bonding.
Bond orders and total charge density for the metal free macrocycle and
the complex were calculated within the molecular orbital theory frame
work at the INDO/1 level. Semiempirical results suggest a high electro
nic density on the coordination site.
