Abstract  A simple theoretical method is introduced for studying the interrelation between electronic and molecular structures. By diagonalizing the 120×120 complete energy matrices, the relationships between zero-field splitting (ZFS) parameter D and local distortion parameter $\Delta\theta$  for Cr3+ ions doped, separately, in $\alpha$- and $\beta$- alums are investigated. Our results indicate that there exists an approximately linear relationship between D and $\Delta\theta$  in a temperature range 4.2--297 K and the signs of D and $\Delta\theta$ are opposite to each other. Moreover, in order to understand the contribution of spin--orbit coupling coefficient $\zeta $ to ZFS parameter D, the relation between D and $\zeta $  is also discussed.
Keywords:  complete energy matrices      electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra      local structure
