Acidopentaaminecobalt(III) Complexessquare-planar arrangement is more suitable than an octahedral arrangement for bonding,, then the contrasting behavior of octahedral systems and square-planar systems can be understood. Evidence in the form of MO calculations,11 spectroscopic studies,11'12 and the results presented here support point (1) above; the second and third points are well established.22 There does not seem to be a need for two theories (symbiosis and MO) to account for the contrasting behavior discussed above. It seems unlikely that any theory (22) L. D.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
