For ML a 4 L b 2, two isomers exist.These isomers of ML a 4 L b 2 are cis, if the L b ligands are mutually adjacent, and trans, if the L b groups are situated 180° to each other. It was the analysis of such complexes that led Alfred Werner to the 1913 Nobel Prize–winning postulation of octahedral complexes.
CO is a well-known strong pi-accepting ligand in organometallic chemistry that will labilize in the cis position when adjacent to ligands due to steric and electronic effects. 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.
Very often, cis–trans stereoisomers contain double bonds or ring structures. In both cases the rotation of bonds is restricted or prevented. [4] When the substituent groups are oriented in the same direction, the diastereomer is referred to as cis, whereas when the substituents are oriented in opposing directions, the diastereomer is referred to as trans.
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.
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 ...
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.
In an octahedral complex, the molecular orbitals created by coordination can be seen as resulting from the donation of two electrons by each of six σ-donor ligands to the d-orbitals on the metal. In octahedral complexes, ligands approach along the x -, y - and z -axes, so their σ-symmetry orbitals form bonding and anti-bonding combinations ...
