The coordination complex (complex 1) shown below displays isomerism. Coordination compounds incorporating the organic ligand shown in complex 1 have played crucial roles in developing our understanding of the thermodynamics and kinetics of complexation of metal ions, the bonding, photochemistry, photophysics and electrochemistry of metal complexes. As a bidentate metal-binding species, the ligand has also found widespread application as a scaffold in supramolecular and metallosupramolecular chemistry. 2+ NI NH3 NH3 Complex 1 (a) Write the correct name and formula of the complex ion shown. Identify its isomer/s and write their name, formula and draw their structures. (b) Assume that complex 1 becomes complex 2 by removing the two NH3 ligands. Write the name and formula, and draw the possible structures of this new complex. (c) For any structure of each complex, 1 and 2, draw a completely labelled crystal field splitting energy level diagram (relative to the spherical field) and confirm by calculation the type of magnetism that each complex exhibits.

A shortcut to finding optical isomers is to see if the complexhas a plane of symmetry—a plane passing through the metal atom such that every atom on one side of the plane is matched byan identical one at the same distance from the plane on the otherside. Any planar complex has a plane of symmetry, since allatoms lie in one plane. Use this approach to determine whetherthese exist as optical isomers: (a) [Zn(NH₃)₂Cl₂] (tetrahedral);(b) [Pt(en)₂]²⁻, (c) trans-[PtBr₄Cl₂]²⁺; (d) trans-[Co(en)₂F₂]⁺;(e)cis-[Co(en)₂F₂]⁺.
