Abstract
Recent developments of the ligand field theory of the properties of transition metal complexes are outlined including the application of the Jahn-Teller theorem to cupric complexes, and the treatment of nickel complexes. The nature of the more general molecular orbital theory and of some of its applications are indicated, especially the explanation which it offers of delocalisation of electrons and changes of strength of binding accompanying change from the spin-free to the spin paired state.
