What will I learn?
This course provides a concise, high-quality introduction to coordination chemistry, covering coordination numbers, octahedral geometry, and cis/trans isomerism in complexes like [M(NH3)4Cl2] and [M(en)2Cl2]. Explore metal choices, d-electron configurations, ligand field influences, bonding mechanisms, colour, and magnetism, linking these to stability, spectroscopy, experimental methods, and practical uses in an efficient format.
