ligand field splitting

JEE Advanced Forum › Inorganic Chemistry questions › ligand field splitting

surrounding groups affect the energy of some of d orbital more than the others. thus, the d orbtals are no longer degenerate- why should surrounding groups affect the energy of some d orbital more than the others when they r previously degenerate??

As a ligand approaches the metal ion, the electrons from the ligand will be closer to some of the d-orbitals and farther away from others causing a loss of degeneracy.See if ligand approaches in an axial direction they will encounter first the electron cloud of d(x²-y²) and d(z²) orbital.so the replulsion causes increase in energy as compared to that in d(xy),d(xz),d(yz) orbital.see figure
