Examples of the capped octahedral molecular geometry are the heptafluoromolybdate (MoF − 7) and the heptafluorotungstate (WF − 7) ions. [3] [4] The "distorted octahedral geometry" exhibited by some AX 6 E 1 molecules such as xenon hexafluoride (XeF 6) is a variant of this geometry, with the lone pair occupying the "cap" position.
The term "octahedral" is used somewhat loosely by chemists, focusing on the geometry of the bonds to the central atom and not considering differences among the ligands themselves. For example, [Co(NH 3) 6] 3+, which is not octahedral in the mathematical sense due to the orientation of the N−H bonds, is referred to as octahedral. [2]
The Jahn–Teller effect (JT effect or JTE) is an important mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking in molecular and solid-state systems which has far-reaching consequences in different fields, and is responsible for a variety of phenomena in spectroscopy, stereochemistry, crystal chemistry, molecular and solid-state physics, and materials science.
Xenon hexafluoride, which has a distorted octahedral geometry. Some AX 6 E 1 molecules, e.g. xenon hexafluoride (XeF 6) and the Te(IV) and Bi(III) anions, TeCl 2− 6, TeBr 2− 6, BiCl 3− 6, BiBr 3− 6 and BiI 3− 6, are octahedral, rather than pentagonal pyramids, and the lone pair does not affect the geometry to the degree predicted by ...
Pd(III) has a d 7 electronic configuration, which leads to a Jahn–Teller distorted octahedral geometry. The geometry could also be viewed as being intermediate between square-planar and octahedral. These complexes are low-spin and paramagnetic. The first Pd(III) complex characterized by X-ray crystallography was reported in 1987. [3]

Each nickel atom has tetragonally distorted octahedral geometry, caused by the difference in the length of the Ni–O bonds between the bridging and non-bridging oxygens. [2] Ni 3 (acac) 6 molecules are almost centrosymmetric, despite the non-centrosymmetric point group of the cis-Ni(acac) 2 "monomers," which is uncommon. [3]
Walsh Diagram of an HAH molecule. Walsh diagrams, often called angular coordinate diagrams or correlation diagrams, are representations of calculated orbital binding energies of a molecule versus a distortion coordinate (bond angles), used for making quick predictions about the geometries of small molecules.
