Energy level positions of the nickel 2+/1+ and cobalt 2+/3+ charge states have been used to estimate band edges for the valence and conduction bands of ZnSe-based alloys with cation (ZnCdSe) and anion (ZnSSe) substitution. Chemical trends in band offsets of heterostructures of Zn- or Mn-based II-VI compounds are analysed. Further on, the change of Ni^{2+}(3d^{8}) and Co^{2+}(3d^{7}) intra-d shell transition bands upon the alloying of host material is discussed.
