Abstract

The octahedral-tetrahedral structural transition of Co(py)2Cl2 was studied by high temperature reflectance spectroscopy and dynamic reflectance spectroscopy. The reversibility of the transition by standing at room temperature for 24 hrs was established.

Résumé

On a pruvé par spectroscopie de reflexion de haute température et spectroscopie de reflexion dynamique la réversibilité de la transition structurale octaédrique-tetraédrique de Co(py)2Cl2 après 24 heures.

Zusammenfassung

Es wurde durch Hochtemperatur-Reflexions-Spektroskopie und dynamische Reflexions-Spektroskopie bewiesen, daß die strukturelle Umwandlung des oktaedrischen Co(py)2Cl2 in die tetraedrische Form nach 24 stündigem Stehen bei Zimmertemperatur reversibel ist.

Резюме

Исследован переход в осьмигранной — четыр ëхгранной конфигурации Co[Py]2Cl2 с помощью спектрос копии отражения при высокой температуре и спектроскопии динамического отраж ения. Обратимость пер ехода определяли выдержив анием при комнатной температу ре в течение 24 часов.
