Notes:
A method is outlined for the calculation of the multiplet ligand-field states of transition metal complexes. The procedure involves the use of MS-Xα wave functions, in connection with irreducible tensor operators, and allows the calculation of the elements of the many-electron CI matrices. Comparison of the calculated and experimental multiplet state energies of CrF3-6, CrCl3-6, and MnF4-6 allows one to conclude that the method is useful for the prediction of ligand-field spectra of transition-metal complexes.
