Complexes of metal ions.
Prior to the work of Werner on coordination complexes, formulated at the time as CoCl3.6NH3, for example, there was no understanding of why the six ammonia molecules were so strongly bound in this compound. Werner showed that the ammonia molecules were in fact chemically bound to the cobalt, and that the three Cl- ions were present only to act as counter-ions to the 3+ charge on the [Co(NH3)6]3+ cation.
Alfred Werner (1866-1919)
Nobel prize 1913 for his work on Coordination compounds
![Page 3: Complexes of metal ions and nomenclature for inorganic compounds ammonia ligands blue = nitrogen donor atom white = hydrogen atom Cobalt(III) ion [Co(NH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081717/5519ce3355034649768b47d2/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
[Co(NH3)6]3+ [Co(NH3)5Cl]2+ [Co(NH3)3Cl3]
Werner proposed that Co(III) (trivalent cobalt) had a coordination number of six, which could be satisfied by six ammonias in ‘a’, five ammonias and a Cl- in ‘b’, and three ammonias and three Cl- in ‘c’. His theory explained why conductivity showed that in solution ‘a’ was a 3+ cation, ‘b’ was a 2+ cation, and ‘c’ was neutral. The molecules or ions coordinated to the Co(III) are called ligands, from the Latin ‘ligare’ meaning ‘to join’. The coordination geometry of the Co(III) is octahedral, which means that the six ligands are placed around the Co(III) at the corners of an octahedron.

A complex is written such that everything inside the square brackets isa ligand chemically bonded to the metal ion. Everything outside the brackets is a counter-ion or something simply present in the crystal lattice. Thus, wemight have [Co(H2O)6](NO3)2 where the NO3
- ions are counter-ions.

Formal Oxidation State:
The formal oxidation state of metal ions in their complexes is determined by ascribing formal charges to all ligands which correspond to those they possess as the free molecules or ions:
Neutral: NH3, H2O, CO, PH3, (CH3)2SAnionic: OH-, F-, Cl-, Br-, I-, CN-, SCN-
Cationic: NO+
![Page 6: Complexes of metal ions and nomenclature for inorganic compounds ammonia ligands blue = nitrogen donor atom white = hydrogen atom Cobalt(III) ion [Co(NH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081717/5519ce3355034649768b47d2/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Examples of oxidation states:
[Co(NH3)6]3+ = Co(III)hexamminecobalt(III)
K3[Fe(CN)6] = Fe(III)potassium hexacyanoferrate(III)
[Co(NH3)4Cl2]Cl = Co(III)tetrammiinedichlorocobalt(III) chloride
[FeNO(NH3)5]Cl3 = Fe(II)pentamminenitrosyliron(II) chloride
[Cr(CO)6] = Cr(0)hexacarbonylchromium(O)
K[V(CO)6] = V(-I)potassium hexacarbonylvanadate(-I)
[Mn(NO)3CO] = Mn(-III)trinitrosylcarbonylmanganese(-III)

Identifying which are ligands:
In the formula for a complex, everything inside the square brackets (blue in formula below) is coordinated to the metal ion, everything outside (red) is a counterion or a lattice molecule.
When the name of a complex is written, all the ligands that are coordinated to the metal ion come before it, while counter-ions come after the name of the metal:
[Co(NH3)4Cl2]Cl is:
tetramminedichlorocobalt(III)chloride

Naming of ligands in complexes: Neutral ligands:
When naming a complex, the ligands are indicated by names as follows:
Neutral ligands: NH3 = ammineH2O = aquaCO = carbonyl
The number of each type of ligand present is indicated by the Latin prefixes di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, hexa-, hepta-, octa-, nona-, and deca-:
[Co(NH3)6]Cl3 = hexamminecobalt(III) chloride[La(H2O)9](NO3)3 = nona-aqua lanthanum(III)
nitrateK2[Ti(CO)6] = potassium hexacarbonyl
titanate(-II)

Anionic ligands: To indicate that they are anions, ligands in complexes are given an ‘o’ ending: fluoro, chloro, bromo, iodo, hydroxo, cyano, sulfato, nitro, etc. If the overall charge on the complex is negative, the metal ion is given an ‘ate’ ending to indicate this:
K3[Fe(CN)6] = potassium hexacyanoferrate(III)or potassium hexacyanoiron(III)
K4[Fe(CN)6] = potassium hexacyanoferrate(II)
Na3[AlF6] = sodium hexafluoroaluminate(III)
[Co(NH3)3F3] = triamminetrifluorocobalt(III)

Nomenclature of complexes:
Cations, including complex cations, come first, anions, including complex anions come second:
[Co(NH3)6]Cl3 = hexammine cobalt(III) chloride, Na3[CrCl6] = sodium hexachlorochromate(III), [Ni(H2O)6]Cl2 = hexaaquanickel(II) chloride
K3[Rh(CN)6] = potassium hexacyanorhodate(III)
[Co(NH3)6][Co(CN)6] = hexamminecobalt(III) hexacyanocobaltate(III)

Naming more complex ligands:
Many ligands are more complex and have more than one donor atom, such as en (ethylenediamine), bipy (2,2’-bipyridyl) and acac (acetyacetonate) below:
Where more complex ligands are present, one indicates the number of these present with prefixes bis-, tris-, tetrakis, pentakis, or hexakis, followed by the name of the ligand in parentheses. Thus, [Co(en)3]Cl3 is tris(ethylenediamine)cobalt(III) chloride.

NOMENCLATURE
1.1 Formulas of Simple Ionic substances.
For ionic compounds, the cation (more electropositive element) should always be first. (KCl, Na2S). If several cations are present, they should be listed in alphabetical order, followed by anions in alphabetical order (LiMgClF2). An exception is the proton, which is always listed last in the sequence of cations, (RbHF2).
![Page 14: Complexes of metal ions and nomenclature for inorganic compounds ammonia ligands blue = nitrogen donor atom white = hydrogen atom Cobalt(III) ion [Co(NH.](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081717/5519ce3355034649768b47d2/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Nomenclature (contd.)
1.2. Sequence of atoms in formulas of polyatomic ions and molecules:
For polyatomic species with a central atom, these are generally listed first followed by the attached atoms in alphabetical order (SO4
2-, CCl2H2, PCl3O, SO3, -CF3, -SCN). An exception is the linear thiocyanate group (-SCN), where the atoms are placed in the order in which they occur in the thiocyanate ion: -S=C=N

Chemical Names
Names of the Elements: These originated with Berzelius (1813) who developed the system that the symbol for an element was the first letter of its name, e.g., F, O, N, C, B. If there was more than one element whose name started with the same letter, then a second, lower-case letter, was added, which was usually the second letter of the name of the element. e.g. C for carbon, but Ca, Cd, Ce, Cf, Cl, Cm, Co, Cr, Cs, Cu. B for Boron, but Ba, Be, Bi, Bk, Br, and so on.

Geometrical isomers can exist with two identical ligands placed next to each (cis) or at 180º to each other (trans). Again, Werner’stheory could explain how two different complexes correspondingto [(NH3)2Cl2Pt] could exist.
