The Experimental Physical Chemistry Program supports Professor                  Hoggard in an investigation of the electronic spectroscopy of                   metal complexes.  The positions of sharp electronic absorption                  features in coordinated metals depend sensitively upon the                      exact geometry not only of the nearest coordinating atoms, but                  also of atoms further removed from the metal atom.                              Experimental and theoretical developments in this research are                  characterizing and interpreting these effects, yielding                         structural information for a variety of complexes both in                       crystals and solutions.  Eventual extension to the gas phase or                 to surface-adsorbed complexes is possible.                                                                                                                      The initial work will use various convenient transitions in                     chromium(III) to determine bite and twist angles in bidentate                   chelate complexes, to examine phase coupling between                            coordinated atoms connected by a conjugated pi-electron system                  in a chelating ligand, and to pinpoint bonding geometry two                     atoms removed from the metal center in appropriate ligands.
