  2. Förster resonance energy transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Förster_resonance_energy...

    Jablonski diagram of FRET with typical timescales indicated. The black dashed line indicates a virtual photon.. Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET), fluorescence resonance energy transfer, resonance energy transfer (RET) or electronic energy transfer (EET) is a mechanism describing energy transfer between two light-sensitive molecules (chromophores).

  3. Metal carbonyl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_carbonyl

    For compounds with doubly bridging CO ligands, denoted μ 2-CO or often just μ-CO, the bond stretching frequency ν CO is usually shifted by 100–200 cm −1 to lower energy compared to the signatures of terminal CO, which are in the region 1800 cm −1. Bands for face-capping (μ 3) CO ligands appear at even lower energies. In addition to ...

  4. Spectrochemical series - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectrochemical_series

    A spectrochemical series is a list of ligands ordered by ligand "strength", and a list of metal ions based on oxidation number, group and element.For a metal ion, the ligands modify the difference in energy Δ between the d orbitals, called the ligand-field splitting parameter in ligand field theory, or the crystal-field splitting parameter in crystal field theory.

  5. Cis effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis_effect

    In inorganic chemistry, the cis effect is defined as the labilization (or destabilization) of CO ligands that are cis to other ligands. CO is a well-known strong pi-accepting ligand in organometallic chemistry that will labilize in the cis position when adjacent to ligands due to steric and electronic effects.

  6. Ligand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand

    In cases where the ligand has low energy LUMO, such orbitals also participate in the bonding. The metal–ligand bond can be further stabilised by a formal donation of electron density back to the ligand in a process known as back-bonding. In this case a filled, central-atom-based orbital donates density into the LUMO of the (coordinated) ligand.

  7. Ligand binding assay - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand_binding_assay

    A ligand binding assay (LBA) is an assay, or an analytic procedure, which relies on the binding of ligand molecules to receptors, antibodies or other macromolecules. [1] A detection method is used to determine the presence and amount of the ligand-receptor complexes formed, and this is usually determined electrochemically or through a fluorescence detection method. [2]

  8. Pi backbonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi_backbonding

    Nitric oxide is an even stronger π-acceptor than CO and ν NO is a diagnostic tool in metal–nitrosyl chemistry. Isocyanides , RNC, are another class of ligands that are capable of π-backbonding. In contrast with CO, the σ-donor lone pair on the C atom of isocyanides is antibonding in nature and upon complexation the CN bond is strengthened ...

  9. Ligand field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand_field_theory

    That is, the unoccupied d orbitals of transition metals participate in bonding, which influences the colors they absorb in solution. In ligand field theory, the various d orbitals are affected differently when surrounded by a field of neighboring ligands and are raised or lowered in energy based on the strength of their interaction with the ...
