Jahn-Teller effect is not observed in high spin complexes of

  1. d7
  2. d8
  3. d4
  4. d9

Answer

(2) d8

Solution

Jahn-Teller distortion occurs when a degenerate set of orbitals ( t2g or eg) is unequally (asymmetrically) occupied.

High spin octahedral configurations:

d4: t2g3eg1 – asymmetric eg J-T (strong)

d7: t2g5eg2 – asymmetric t2g J-T (weak)

d8: t2g6eg2 – both sets symmetrically filled no J-T

d9: t2g6eg3 – asymmetric eg J-T (strong)

Answer: (2)
