Hello,
I've heard rumors (frankly, not rumors, evidenced by some scientific papers), that zinc(II) ion has coordinated five ligands, four at a plane, and the fifth from top, to form a tetragonal monopyramidal environment.
I have some doubts about this, because zinc (II) ion has d10 electronic configuration in normal circumstances, which means, according to crystal field theory, that octahedral stability energy is zero.
What are your comments?
