Which of the following complex is homoleptic? [2024]
(A)
Complexes in which a metal is bound to only one kind of donor groups are known as homoleptic. Complexes in which a metal is bound to more than one kind of donor groups are known as heteroleptic. (1) is homoleptic. (2), (3) and (4) are heteroleptic.
The correct IUPAC name of is: [2024]
dibromobis(trimethylphosphine)platinum(II)
bis[bromo(trimethylphosphine)]platinum(II)
dibromodi(trimethylphosphine)platinum(II)
bis(trimethylphosphine)dibromoplatinum(II)
(A)
Multiplicity of simple ligands is denoted by di, tri, tetra etc. and multiplicity of complex ligands is denoted by bis, tris, tetrakis etc.
: dibromobis (trimethylphosphine) platinum(II)
Given below are two statements:
Statement I: and can act as ligands to form transition metal complexes.
Statement II: As N and P are from the same group, the nature of bonding of and is always same with transition metals.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below: [2024]
Statement I is correct but Statement II is incorrect
Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
Statement I is incorrect but Statement II is correct
Both Statement I and Statement II are incorrect
(A)
Since both N and P have lone pair of electrons in and , these act as ligands and form complexes. P has vacant d orbital hence act as acceptor ligand, but cannot do so as N does not have a vacant d orbital.
