Abstract
The polarised single-crystal electronic and e.s.r. spectra of K3Cu(NO2)5 have been determined and are shown to be consistent with the stereochemistry of the two non-equivalent copper(II) environments present namely, a seven-co-ordinate [CU(NO2)3(ONO)2]3- and a cis-distorted six-co-ordinate [CU(NO2)2(ONO)2(ONO)]3- species. The i.r. spectrum is shown to be compatable with the presence of nitro- and unidentate and bidentate nitrito-ligands, but cannot distinguish the two types of nitrito-co-ordination. A structural pathway is suggested between the seven-co-ordinate and cis-distorted species.
