Geometrical isomerism arises in heteroleptic complexes due to different possible geometrical arrangement of the ligands. Important examples of this behaviour are found with coordination number 4 and 6. Such isomerism is not possible for a tetrahedral geometry but it is possible for square planar as well as octahedral complexes. Optical square planar as well as octahedral complexes. Optical square planar as well as octahedral complexes. Optical isomers are mirror images that cannot be superimposed on one another. These are called enantiomers. Optical isomerism is common in octahedral complexes involving bedentate ligands. Which of the following complexes will show geometrical isomerism ?
