COMPLEX FORMATION And THE SHAPE OF COMPLEX IONS L.O.: Recall definition of ‘ligand’, ‘co-ordinative bond’, ‘co-ordination number’. Identify unidentate, bidentate and multidentate ligands. Explain the effect of the size of ligand on the shape of the complex ion. 2+ H2.O. H2O: Fe H2O: :OH2 :OH2 .. H2O A complex ion is formed when a transition metal ion is surrounded by ions or other molecules (called ligands), which are bonded to it by co-ordinative bonds. The number of co-ordinative bond that surround the metal ions called co-ordination number. COMPLEX IONS - LIGANDS Ligands atoms, or ions, which possess lone pairs of electrons form co-ordinate bonds to the central ion donate a lone pair into vacant orbitals on the central species Ligand Formula chloride Cl¯ cyanide NC¯ hydroxide HO¯ oxide O2water H2O ammonia NH3 Name of ligand chloro cyano hydroxo oxo aqua ammine CO-ORDINATION NUMBER & SHAPE the shape of a complex is governed by the number of ligands around the central ion the co-ordination number gives the number of ligands around the central ion a change of ligand can affect the co-ordination number Co-ordination No. Shape Example(s) 6 Octahedral 4 Tetrahedral 2 [Cu(H2O)6]2+ [CuCl4]2- Square planar Pt(NH3)2Cl2 Linear [Ag(NH3)2]+ Multidentate ligands: have more than one lone pair which can bond to a transition metal. Ligands which form only one co-ordinative bond per ligand and are said to be unidentate. Ligands which donate 2 lone pairs per ligand and are said to be bidentate. Multidentate ligands have more than one lone pair which they can bond to a transition metal. edta COMPLEX IONS - LIGANDS some ligands attach themselves using two or more lone pairs classified by the number of lone pairs they use multidentate and bidentate ligands lead to more stable complexes Multidentate form several co-ordinate bonds HAEM A complex containing iron(II) which is responsible for the red colour in blood and for the transport of oxygen by red blood cells.
