Abstract The molecular packing oftrans-Cu (1,3-diaminopropane)2 (4-chlorobenzoate)2 suggests interactions between the 4-chlorobenzoate anions. Gaussian analysis of the photoacoustic spectrum of the compound, recorded to search for a relevant electronic transition, revealed maxima at 517, 598, and 860 nm. The first two were assigned tod-d transitions of copper(II) ion with the help of crystal field calculations, molecular orbital theory, and single-crystal ESR data. The third transition, at 860 nm, was tentatively assigned to a charge-transfer transition between 4-chlorobenzoate anions. An electron population analysis based on CNDO calculations indirectly supported a possible EDA complex formation.
