Name the type of isomerism when ambidentate ligands are attched to central metal ion. Give two examples of ambidentate ligands. |
|
Answer» Ligand having more than one different binding position are known as ambidentate ligand. E.g., SCN has two different binding positions S and N. Coordination compound containing ambidentate ligands are considered to show linkage isomerism due to presence of two different binding positions. e.g., (i) `[CO(NH_(3))_(5) SCN]^(3+)` and (ii) `[Fe(NH_(3))_(5)(NO_(2))]^(3+)` |
