L 3 -edge high-energy-resolution fluorescence-detection X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra for palladium and rhodium compounds are presented, with focus on their electronic structures. The data are compared with transmission XANES spectra recorded at the K -edge. A correlation between the absorption edge energy and the metal ion oxidation state is not observed. Despite the different filling of the 4 d orbitals and different local coordination, the Rh and Pd compounds show remarkably similar spectral shapes. Calculation of the density of states and of the L 3 -XANES data reproduce the experimental results.
