Crystal field theory (CFT) explains the electronic structure of transition-metal complexes by considering the electrostatic interactions between metal d orbitals and surrounding ligands. Ligand arrangement splits d-orbital energies into sets (e.g., eg and t2g in octahedral complexes), influencing color, magnetism, and reactivity. CFT underpins advanced models (ligand field theory) and is critical to understanding complex stability and spectral properties.
