Coordination Chemistry • Ref.: Housecroft (Chap. 20), Shriver (Chap. 7) • Introduction: the metals and ligands • Crystal field theory: octahedral, tetrahedral, and square planar geometry • Spectrochemical series (strong/weak field ligands) • Electron configurations: LFSE, LS and HS config. • Spectral, magnetic and thermochemical properties • Coordination equilibria, chelate effect • M.O. diagram of ML6
Coordination compounds (metal complexes) Common geometry
The metals Transition elements (http://www.rsc.org/is/viselements.htm) • Elements with incomplete d shell (A) Position First/ second/ third row TMs • Sizedecreasesdown a group • Lanthanide contraction (filling of f orbitals) Sizes of 2nd row and 3rd row TMs are similar Ion Cr3+ Mo3+ Ru3+ Ir3+ Size/Å (CN = 6) 0.76 0.83 0.820.82
(B) Early/late TMs Early: on the LHS of the periodic table (e.g. Ti) Late: on the RHS of the periodic table (e.g. Pt) Usually, for metal complexes • Early TM : high metal oxidation state, e.g. Ti(IV), V(V) (high valent); hard metal ions (binds to hard ligands) • Late TM : low metal oxidation state, e.g. Pt(II), Au(I) (low valent); soft metal ions (binds to soft ligands) • Why?
Atomic radius Ti Cu Atomic number
IE Ti Cu Atomic number
Ligands (A) Charge (formal charge) • Neutral (e.g. :CO, :PR3, :NH3) • Anionic (e.g. Cl-, O2-, CH3-) • Cationic (rare!) (e.g. NO+, C7H7+) (B) Hard/Soft properties Hard : period 1 donor (NH3, OH2) Soft : carbon (CO, CH3-, CH2=CH2) & period 2 donors (PR3, SR2)
(C) No. of donor atom Metal complexes with polydentate (chelating) ligands are more stable than those with unidentate analogues. Chelate effect
Exercises • Classify the following ligands as p donor, p acceptor, or s ligands • NMe3 • I- • NO+ • CN- • OH- • H- • CH3-
Nomenclature (1) Ligands in alphabetical order (3) Indicate O.N. of metal (in Roman no.: I, II, 0) (4) Indicate the no. of L and M (di, tri, tetra etc.). Also bis, tris, tetrakis (5) Anionic ligand o; e.g. Cl- (chloro), H- (hydrido), CN- (cyano) (6) Anionic complexes => ate e.g. Mn (manganate), Fe (ferrate), Cr (chromate) etc
(7) Add structural prefixes, e.g. cis/ trans, fac/ meretc. Examples: K3[Mn(CN)6] Tripotassium hexacyanomanganate(III) Na2[Fe(CO)4] Disodium tetracarbonylferrate(-II)
Exercises • Name the following compounds • (1) [Mn2(CO)10], [Co2(CO)8] • (2) [Ru(PPh3)4Cl2] • (3) K2[Pt(CN)4] • (4) [Cr(NH3)3(H2O)(OH)Cl][NO3]
