Abstract

Continuing in our work on the correlations between the rate constants, k CR, of the ortho into para-positronium conversion reactions, CR, promoted by complexes of various 3d ions and the metal electron delocalization β caused by the ligands, the relationship between the parameters of the correlation lines pertinent to highand low-spin complexes of CrII, MnII, and CoII ions was ascertained. Moreover, it was experimentally verified, for the first time, that the statistical probability of the CR promoted by paramagnetic compounds with S = 1/2 is three times larger than that of the CR caused by compounds with S > 1/2.
