Question
Which of the following complexes can exist as diastereoisomers ?
Options
A.[Cr(NH3)2Cl4]-
B.[Co(NH3)5Br]2+
C.[FeCl2(NCS)2]2-
D.[PtCl2Br2]2-
Solution
(A) Exists as cis and trans form but neither of the forms can have enantiomeric forms on account of
presence of the plane of symmetry as well as centre of symmetry.
(B) Only one form possible
(C) Tetrahedral in which all positions are adjacent to each other.
(D) Exists as cis and trans form but neither of the forms can have enantiomeric forms on account of
presence of the plane of symmetry.
