А. В. b. Now consider the two molecules A. and B. Note that A. is a dianion and B. is a neutral molecule. One of these molecules is a highly reactive compound first characterized in frozen noble gas matrices, that self-reacts rapidly at temperatures above liquid nitrogen temperature. The other compound was isolated at room temperature in the early 1960s, and is a stable ligand used in organometallic chemistry. Which molecule is the more stable molecule, and why?

1. The molecule listed to the left was originally MX6 where the symmetry was On. After reduction of the metal center the coordination environment changed and the ligands along the Z-axis elongated(hint: this means that the extent of overlap of orbitals that interact with the z-axis point charges would be lesser than the On molecule). Draw the crystal field splitting of both the On symmetry molecule as well as elongated z-axis molecule with symmetry labels.
