Vedclass · Answer

(A) The complexes $[(C_6H_5)_2Pd(SCN)_2]$ and $[(C_6H_5)_2Pd(NCS)_2]$ differ in the mode of attachment of the ambidentate ligand $SCN^-$. In the first complex,the ligand is bonded through the sulfur atom $(S-bonded)$,while in the second complex,it is bonded through the nitrogen atom $(N-bonded)$. This type of isomerism,where an ambidentate ligand coordinates through different donor atoms,is known as linkage isomerism.

The pair of complexes $[(C_6H_5)_2Pd(SCN)_2]$ and $[(C_6H_5)_2Pd(NCS)_2]$ represents which type of isomerism?
