Comparison of the crystal structure of high- and low-spin iron(III) dialkyldithiocarbamate complexes, [Fe(CS2玒2)3], reveals (a) the predicted difference (0籠ũ in metal-sulphur bond length and (b) an unusual distortion from D3 to C3 symmetry in the low-spin complex, attributed to spin-orbit interactions in the ground state.Comparison of the crystal structure of high- and low-spin iron(III) dialkyldithiocarbamate complexes, [Fe(CS2玒2)3], reveals (a) the predicted difference (0籠ũ in metal-sulphur bond length and (b) an unusual distortion from D3 to C3 symmetry in the low-spin complex, attributed to spin-orbit interactions in the ground state.
