Complexes: Have metal ion (can be zero oxidation state)
bonded to number of ligands.
Complex contains central metal ion bonded to one
or more molecules or anions
Lewis acid = metal = center of coordination
Coordination compound
[Cu(NH3)4][PtCl4]
[Pt(NH3)2Cl2]
Teeth of a ligand ( teeth dent)
• Ligands
– classified according to the number of donor
atoms
– Examples
• monodentate = 1 chelating agents
• bidentate = 2
• tetradentate = 4
• hexadentate = 6
• polydentate = 2 or more donor atoms
monodentate, bidentate, tridentate etc. where the concept of teeth (dent)
is introduced, hence the idea of bite angle etc.

Coordination Equilibria & Chelate effect
"The adjective chelate, derived from the great claw or
chela (chely - Greek) of the lobster, is suggested for the
groups which function as two units and fasten to the
central atom so as to produce heterocyclic rings."
J. Chem. Soc., 1920, 117, 1456
