JEE Main2013ChemistryCoordination CompoundsActual
Type of isomerism which exists between [ Pd ( C ₆ H ₅ )₂( SCN )₂ ] and [ Pd ( C ₆ H ₅ )₂( NCS )₂ ] is :
Options
- ALinkage isomerism
- BCoordination isomerism
- CIonisation isomerism
- DSolvate isomerism
Correct answer
A. Linkage isomerism
Step-by-step solution
The compound shows linkage isomerism because the ligand in the compound is an ambidenate ligand that can bond at more than one atomic site. i.e., : NCS ⁻ and : SCN ⁻
