Paramagnetism complex ions

The IV oxidation state, d1. This is of little importance for Rh and only a few complexes have been characterized. However, the IV state for Ir is well defined and a number of stable paramagnetic complex ions exist. 

The complex ion (Figure 2.32) contains Rh2 bound cis to two phosphorus atoms (2.216 A) and more distantly to four oxygens (2.201—2.398 A), exhibiting a distortion ascribed to the Jahn-Teller effect it is paramagnetic (fi = 1.80 fiB) and exhibits an ESR spectrum (Figure 2.33) showing rhodium hyperfine coupling as the doublet for g. ...

The classical equation for 7 sis provided in Section VII.A of Chapter 2. It depends only on the spin quantum number S, on the molar concentration of paramagnetic metal ions, on the distance d, and on a diffusion coefficient D, which is the sum of the diffusion coefficients of both the solvent molecule (Dj) and the paramagnetic complex (Dm), usually much smaller. The outer-sphere relaxivity calculated with this equation at room temperature and in pure water solution, by assuming d equal to 3 A, is shown in Pig. 25. It appears that the dispersions do not have the usual Lorentzian form. 

The relaxivity enhancement of water protons in the aqueous solutions of paramagnetic complexes arises from time fluctuation of the dipolar coupling between the electron magnetic moment of the metal ion and the nuclear magnetic moment of the solvent nuclei (13,14). The dipolar interaction...
