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.
Second-order Jahn-Teller distortion provides a rigorous and first-principles approach to the distortion problem. The interactions between the HOMOs and LUMOs to afford a new set of molecular orbitals is an example of second-order Jahn-Teller distortion.
In their early 1957 paper on what is now called pseudo Jahn–Teller effect (PJTE), Öpik and Pryce [2] showed that a small splitting of the degenerate electronic term does not necessarily remove the instability and distortion of a polyatomic system induced by the Jahn–Teller effect (JTE), provided that the splitting is sufficiently small (the two split states remain "pseudo degenerate ...
Although the CFSE for copper(II) is less than for nickel(II), octahedral copper(II) complexes are subject to the Jahn–Teller effect which results in a complex having extra stability. Another example of the effect of ionic radius the steady increase in stability of complexes with a given ligand along the series of trivalent lanthanide ions, an ...
The Jahn–Teller effect is one such cause. Complexes are not perfectly symmetric all the time. Complexes are not perfectly symmetric all the time. Transitions that occur as a result of an asymmetrical vibration of a molecule are called vibronic transitions , such as those caused by vibronic coupling .
Its distorted octahedral structure reflects geometric distortions due to the Jahn–Teller effect. The two most common structures for this complex include one with tetragonal elongation and one with tetragonal compression. For the elongation, two Mn–O bonds are 2.12 Å while the other four are 1.93 Å.
the Jahn-Teller effect is a pretty advanced topic in chemistry and a reader would really benefit from some groundwork, octahedral complex would be preferable over octahedral complex. See also the AXE method, most molecular geometries are still missing. V8rik 20:07, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
The Renner-Teller effect is a phenomenon in molecular spectroscopy where a pair of electronic states that become degenerate at linearity are coupled by rovibrational motion. [ 1 ] The Renner-Teller effect is observed in the spectra of molecules that have electronic states that allow vibration through a linear configuration.
