Here, we combined magnetometry, multi‐frequency electronic paramagnetic resonance, and wave function based ab initio calculations to investigate magnetic properties of two high spin Co(II) complexes Co(BDPRP) (BDPRP=2,6‐bis((2‐(S)‐di(4‐R)phenylhydroxylmethyl‐1‐pyrrolidi‐nyl)methyl)pyridine, R=H for 8; R=tBu for 9). Complexes 8 and 9 featuring effective D3h symmetry were found to possess D=24.0 and 32.0 cm−1, respectively, in their S=3/2 ground states of
1e''dxz/yz41e'dxy/x2-y221a1'dz21
${{\left(1{{\rm e}}^{{\rm { {^\prime}}}{\rm { {^\prime}}}\right({d}_{xz/yz}\left)\right)}^{4}{\left(1{{\rm e}}^{{\rm { {^\prime}}}\right({d}_{{xy/{x}^{2}-y}^{2}}\left)\right)}^{2}{\left(1{{\rm a}}_{1}^{{\rm { {^\prime}}}\right({d}_{{z}^{2}}\left)\right)}^{1}}$
. Ligand field analyses revealed that the low‐lying d‐d excited states make either positive or vanishing contributions to D. Hence, total positive D values were measured for 8 and 9, as well as related D3h high spin Co(II) complexes. In contrast, negative D values are usually observed for C3v congeners. In‐depth analyses suggested that lowering symmetry from D3h to C3v induces orbital mixing between

and

${2{\rm e}\left({d}_{{xy/{x}^{2}-y}^{2}}\right)}$
and admixes excited state

${{}^{4}{{\rm A}}_{2}\left(1e\to 2e\right)}$
into the ground state. Both factors turn the total D value progressively negative with the increasing distance (δ) of the Co(II) center out of the equatorial plane. Therefore, δ determines the sign and magnitude of final D values of five‐coordinate trigonal bipyramidal S=3/2 Co(II) complexes as measured for a series of such species with varying δ.
The combination of magnetometry and multi‐frequency electronic paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy reveal large positive axial zero‐field splitings, D’s, for 8 and 9 (24 cm−1 and 32 cm−1), and in‐depth ligand field analyses on top of wave function based ab initio calculations demonstrated that the Co(II) out‐of‐equatorial plane distance, δ, determines the sign and magnitude of D values of five‐coordinate trigonal bipyramidal high spin Co(II) complexes.
