Ligand field molecular orbital (MO) bonding regimes for Werner-type (left), covalent (middle), and inverted ligand fields.[1]At the transition-metal - main group boundary, metal cations in organometallic complexes are more electronegative than the relatively more electropositive ligand atoms which act as z-type ligands.
Inverted ligand field theory (ILFT) describes a phenomenon in the bonding of coordination complexes where the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital is primarily of ligand character.[2][1] This is contrary to the traditional ligand field theory or crystal field theory picture and arises from the breaking down of the assumption that in organometallic complexes, ligands are more electronegative and have frontier orbitals below those of the d orbitals of electropositive metals.[3][4] Towards the right of the d-block, when approaching the transition-metal–main group boundary, the d orbitals become more core-like, making their cations more electronegative. This decreases their energies and eventually arrives at a point where they are lower in energy than the ligand frontier orbitals.[2] Here the ligand field inverts so that the bonding orbitals are more metal-based, and antibonding orbitals more ligand-based. The relative arrangement of the d orbitals are also inverted in complexes displaying this inverted ligand field.[2]
