Updated. This is part 2 of a three part introduction to ligand field theory. In this video the ligand field diagrams of 6coordinate complexes in Oh symmetry with sigmaonly donors, pidonor, and piacceptor ligands will be constructed. The origin of the spectroschemical series will also be discussed.

Part 1 contained information on the SALCs used in this video. See:    • Ligand Field Theory Basics 1: SALCs o...  

Part 3 will deal with ligandfield diagrams in symmetries other than Oh.
