Abstract
The magnetic moments of the Co3+ ion in some newly reported complexes is investigated using a theoretical approach for two extreme ligand field strengths. It is found that the experimentally reported spectroscopic results do not correspond to the magnetic behavior. From detailed theoretical analysis, it is suggested that the reported spectroscopic assignments and magnetic data have to be reconsidered and seriously reinterpreted. It is also suggested that the magnetic moment and spectroscopic transition should not be considered separately.
