  1. What are the isomers of a complex having a structure of M(AB)2C2?

    Jun 19, 2019 · Referring to the replies of Mr. Ivan Neretin, complexes that has a form of M (AB)2C2 posses 8 stereoisomers, 2 of which are optically inactive. The other 6 isomers can be …

  2. Number of optically active isomers of [Co(NH3)2Cl2(NO)(OH)]?

    Apr 23, 2020 · My Attempt: Since Compound is of the form M [a 2 b 2 cd] I got three optically active isomers of the form M [ (ab) (ab) (cd)] , M [ (ab) (ac) (bd)] , M [ (ab) (bc) (ad)] and since …

  3. Why is [M (AB)2] a geometrical isomer? - Chemistry Stack Exchange

    Jun 30, 2021 · Our teacher told us that for coordination number 4 and tetrahedral shape $\\ce{[M(AB)2]}$ doesn't have a plane of symmetry, so it shows optical isomerism. What if we …

  4. Similarity in the spectra of carotenes and xanthophylls

    Jan 7, 2026 · If I am scanning a mixture of beta-carotene and two xanthophylls (namely lutein and zeaxanthin; they are quite similar in wavelengths) and scan them at beta-carotene maximum …

    May 1, 2020 · The Re2Cl8 2- ion is composed of two square planar ReCl4 units joined by four Re- Re bonds (quadruple bonding) and has D4h symmetry. (a) Determine the symmetries …

  6. Method to know the number of isomers of metal complexes

    Apr 20, 2017 · Whenever I try to find the number of geometrical isomers (including optical isomers) of coordination compound, I got confused, and mostly miss few isomers. Is there any …

  7. Optical Isomerism in Coordination Compounds of type MA₂B₂(CC)

    Nov 28, 2018 · But, the following four isomers was provided as answer, in which I don't think that the second configuration of complex will show any optical activity due to plane of symmetry (as …

  8. How to calculate the 15 geometrical isomers of an octahedral …

    Apr 20, 2018 · Suppose we have a complex of type $\\ce{[Mabcdef]}$ then we know it’ll show geometrical isomerism. According to my textbook (Cengage Inorganic Chemistry II, Page …
