Explain optical isomerism in coordination compounds with an example. |
|
Answer» Solution :Coordination compounds which possess chairality exhibity optical ISOMERISM simillar to organic compounds.The pair of two optically active isomers which are mirror images of each other are called enantiomers .Their solution rotate the PLANE of the plane polarised light either CLOCKWISE or anticlockwise and the corresponding isomers are called 'd' (dextro rotatory) and 'I' rotatory laevo FORMS respectively Eg. ` [Co(EN)_3 ]^(3+) `
