Jahn-Teller distortion in bis(terpyridine)nickel(III) – Elongation or compression?

DFT methods were used to evaluate the type of Jahn-Teller distortion in the low spin d7 bis(terpyridine)nickel(III) doublet. The strain of the tridentate terpyridine ligand in bis(terpyridine)nickel(III) leads to longer Ni(III)-N terminal bond lengths than the Ni(III)-N central bonds. In addition, i...
