$[Pt(en)_2Cl_2]$

Vedclass · Answer

(D) The complex $[Pt(en)_2Cl_2]$ has an octahedral geometry (assuming $Pt(IV)$). It exhibits geometrical isomerism due to the existence of $cis$ and $trans$ forms. The $cis$-isomer of $[Pt(en)_2Cl_2]$ is optically active because it lacks a plane of symmetry and a center of inversion,thus existing as a pair of enantiomers. The $trans$-isomer is optically inactive due to the presence of a plane of symmetry. Therefore,$[Pt(en)_2Cl_2]$ shows both geometrical and optical isomerism.

Which of the following complexes will show both geometrical and optical isomerism $(en = \text{ethylene diamine})$?
