Question
Chapter 24, Problem 65FP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The oxidation states of Co ions in the following compound and the number of unpaired electrons (if the complex is low spin) should be determined also the structures of the two optical isomers should be drawn.
Concept introduction:
A special class of compounds is complex compounds in which the central atom(s)/ion(s) are bonded to the number of neutral or anion molecules. These compounds are also said to be a complex compound.
The bonded number of neutral or anion molecules to central metal is known as ligands that formally donate electrons to the metal center.

Werner prepared two compounds by heating a solution of PtCl₂ with triethyl phosphine, P(C₂H₅)₃, which is an excellent ligand for Pt. The two compounds gave the same analysis: Pt,38.8%; Cl, 14.1%; C, 28.7%; P, 12.4%; and H, 6.02%. Writeformulas, structures, and systematic names for the two isomers
When Alfred Werner was developing the field of coordinationchemistry, it was argued by some that the opticalactivity he observed in the chiral complexes he hadprepared was due to the presence of carbon atoms in themolecule. To disprove this argument, Werner synthesizeda chiral complex of cobalt that had no carbon atoms in it,and he was able to resolve it into its enantiomers. Design acobalt(III) complex that would be chiral if it could be synthesizedand that contains no carbon atoms. (It may not bepossible to synthesize the complex you design, but we willnot worry about that for now.)
Cis-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) or “cisplatin” is a square planar complex with the formula [Pt(NH3)2Cl2]. Cisplatin is an anticancer drug that works by bonding to two adjacent guanine bases on the same strand of DNA, creating a kink which disrupts DNA replication. Each bond to a guanine base is formed by displacing one Cl ligand on cisplatin. The closely related complex trans-diamminedichloroplatinum (II) is completely ineffective as an anticancer agent. Explain why.
