1 (i) Discuss how the nature of the ligand, position of the metal in the d-block elements and metal oxidation state influence the magnitude of the d orbital splitting in metal complexes, (as applied in crystal field theory). Outline the principal differences between the 1st row and 2nd/3rd row transition metal complexes.

(ii) Describe with relevant examples and diagrams the several types of isomerism which are commonly encountered in transition metal complexes.

    SYNTHESIS OF TRANSITION METAL COORDINATION COM 3. Ethylenediamine ("en" in short-hand notation) has two amine groups, one at each end of a two-carbon chain, NH,CH,CH,NH. Each nitrogen in NH,CH,CH_NH, has a lone pair that coordinates to the metal. Thus, one NH CH CH NH, ligand, takes up two coordina- tion sites. a) Draw and label the structures of the cis and trans isomers of Co(en),C1,CI. b) What is the coordination number for (Coſen),C1,CI? c) Determine the oxidation state of the...
