Question
Which of the following complex does not show geometrical isomerism ?
Options
A.[Co (NH3)4 Cl2]+
B.[Co (NH3)3 (NO2)3]
C.[Cr (en)3]3+
D.[Pt (gly)2]
Solution
(A) There are two geometrical isomers, cis and trans.
(B) There are two geometrical isomers, facial and meridional.
(C) ′en′ is a symmetrical ligand, and M(AA)3 has only one form.

(D) There are two geometrical isomers because glycine is an unsymmetrical ligand.
