Abstract
Diamagnetic muon yields /PD/ in various metal acetylacetonates were measured at room temperature by the muon spin rotation technique. We have found a clear difference in PD between complexes of typical elements and those of transition elements. We suggest that partially filled inner orbitals play some important role in determining the diamagnetic yield in these complexes.
