Question:
Name the type of isomerism when ambidentate ligands are attached to a central metal ion. Give two examples of ambidentate ligands.
Solution:
Ambidendate ligands are those having different two binding sites.
Examples: Isothiocyanato Thiocyanato and Nitrite-N Nitrito-O
The type of isomerism when ambidentate ligands are attached to a central metal ion is called linkage isomerism because they only differ in the atom that is linked to the central metal ion.
