Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The character of the σ-MO Cu-ligand bond in copper complexes depends both on the nature of the atoms which directly constitute the coordination sphere and on the far-removed chelate atoms.

  2. 2.

    The σ molecular orbitals are more covalent if the electronegativity of the directly coordinated atoms is lower.

  3. 3.

    The σ molecular orbitals are more covalent in compounds in which the nearest coordination sphere remains the same if the electronegativity of the remote atoms in the ligand is increased.
