Abstract

The X-ray spectroscopic signatures of solvated Co²⁺ ions mimicking the aqueous solution of CoCl₂ are investigated accounting for multiconfigurational as well as spin–orbit coupling effects. To this end the RASSCF/RASSI methodology with second order corrections due to dynamical correlation (RASPT2) is employed. Emphasis is put on the identification of spectral signatures of different species in octahedral, [Co(H₂O)_6−xCl_x]^(2−x)+, and tetrahedral, [Co(H₂O)_4−xCl_x]^(2−x)+, coordination. X-ray absorption spectra show distinct differences in the L₃ band only. Here, the best agreement between theory and experiment is obtained for the hexaaqua complex [Co(H₂O)₆]²⁺. For better identification of particular species it is proposed to use RIXS spectroscopy, which shows pronounced species-dependent inelastic features.
