Document Summary

Each cl has four pairs of non-bonding receptor (lewis acid). Both the nh3 and the cl can act as electron pair donors electrons. The electron configuration of pt2+ is 6s0 5d8. The pt2+ is an electron pair (lewis base). Therefore, the formation of this complex may be described as a lewis acid-base reaction. A bidentate ligand contains two donor atoms, or atoms that can bond to the metal centre. A chelate ligand is one in which two or more donor atoms are bound to the same metal centre. Linkage isomers are compounds which differ only by the donor atom of the ligand. If a ligand contains two different donor atoms, there exists the possibility of two different isomers, because each donor atom could bond to the metal centre. Ionization isomers differ by which anions are coordinated and which ones are not. The term coordination number refers to the number of atoms bound directly to the metal centre.
