  2. Cis effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis_effect

    The system most often studied for the cis effect is an octahedral complex M(CO) 5 X where X is the ligand that will labilize a CO ligand cis to it. Unlike the trans effect, which is most often observed in 4-coordinate square planar complexes, the cis effect is observed in 6-coordinate octahedral transition metal complexes.

  3. Octahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octahedral_molecular_geometry

    For a free ion, e.g. gaseous Ni 2+ or Mo 0, the energy of the d-orbitals are equal in energy; that is, they are "degenerate". In an octahedral complex, this degeneracy is lifted. The energy of the d z 2 and d x 2 −y 2, the so-called e g set, which are aimed directly at the ligands are destabilized.

  4. Cis–trans isomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    Another example of this is the relationship between oleic acid and elaidic acid; oleic acid, the cis isomer, has a melting point of 13.4 °C, making it a liquid at room temperature, while the trans isomer, elaidic acid, has the much higher melting point of 43 °C, due to the straighter trans isomer being able to pack more tightly, and is solid ...

  5. List of character tables for chemically important 3D point groups

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_character_tables...

    A superscripted uppercase "C" denotes complex conjugation. The two rightmost columns indicate which irreducible representations describe the symmetry transformations of the three Cartesian coordinates ( x , y and z ), rotations about those three coordinates ( R x , R y and R z ), and functions of the quadratic terms of the coordinates( x 2 , y ...

  6. Coordination complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_complex

    Cisplatin, PtCl 2 (NH 3) 2, is a coordination complex of platinum(II) with two chloride and two ammonia ligands.It is one of the most successful anticancer drugs. A coordination complex is a chemical compound consisting of a central atom or ion, which is usually metallic and is called the coordination centre, and a surrounding array of bound molecules or ions, that are in turn known as ligands ...

  7. Descriptor (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Descriptor_(Chemistry)

    The descriptors cis (Latin, on this side of) [2] and trans (Latin, over, beyond) [3] are used in various contexts for the description of chemical configurations: [4] [5] In organic structural chemistry , the configuration of a double bond can be described with cis and trans , in case it has a simple substitution pattern with only two residues.

  8. Tetradentate ligand - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetradentate_ligand

    The ligand can bend so that one donor atom is at the pole and the remaining three are on the equator of the central atom. This is called cis-β (beta). The remaining octahedral positions are cis (adjacent) to each other. The triangles of coordinating atoms and the central atom have two coplanar atoms, and one perpendicular atom.

    Term symbols (e.g. 3 P, 1 S, etc.) for a specific d n free ion are listed, in order of increasing energy, on the y-axis of the diagram. The relative order of energies is determined using Hund's rules. For an octahedral complex, the spherical, free ion term symbols split accordingly: [9]
