Discuss, in detail, the origins of charge transfer (CT) bands in
octahedral complexes and describe how solvatochromism can be
applied to characterise CT bands.
Explain the origin of d-d, metal-to-ligand charge transfer, and
ligand-to-metal charge transfer transitions for octahedral metal
complexes with appropriate molecular orbital diagrams. Also,
comment on the allowance of these transitions using appropriate
selection rules.
