Abstract [eng] In the recent studies thiocyanate-containing metal complexes are considered to be the most investigated systems. Such complexes exhibit specific properties which could be applied in various fields such as catalysis, photochemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology and etc. The complexes of mercury(II) and iron(III) thiocyanates are of interest since they are widely applied for analysis in the clinical or industrial laboratories. As a result these complexes received great attention, due to the fascinating properties in designing new materials with inorganic and organic ligands. Dealing with such complex system, accurate prediction of the synthesized compound properties is challenging. For this reason, researchers analyze how the replacement of certain group, modification, molar ratio of the mixed ligands and etc. may influence the structure and properties of the obtained complex. Molecular structure, vibrational and electronic spectra of aqueous mercury(II) thiocyanate and iron(III) monoisothiocyanate solutions (at the pH ~ 2) were analyzed in the dissertation by means of Raman and UV-VIS spectroscopies and quantum chemical calculations. The structure, coordination number and vibrational assignments of the titled complexes were determined. The influence of different solvation models upon spectral properties was estimated. The excited state analysis of iron(III) monoisothiocyanate was performed.
