What is Jahn-Teller Distortion in Complexes about?

This document discusses square planar and octahedral complexes in inorganic chemistry. It covers: 1) Square planar complexes form when two axial ligands are removed from an octahedral complex, lowering the energy of the dz2 orbital. Common d8 and d9 square planar complexes are mentioned. 2) Jahn-Teller distortions can occur in octahedral complexes with degenerate electronic states and different numbers of electrons in those states. This removes the degeneracy and lowers the energy. 3) An example is giv
