In homogeneous catalysis, C2-symmetric ligands refer to ligands that lack mirror symmetry but have C2 symmetry (two-fold rotational symmetry). Such ligands are usually bidentate and are valuable in catalysis. [1] The C2 symmetry of ligands limits the number of possible reaction pathways and thereby increases enantioselectivity, relative to ...
Ligand. In coordination chemistry, a ligand [a] is an ion or molecule with a functional group that binds to a central metal atom to form a coordination complex. The bonding with the metal generally involves formal donation of one or more of the ligand's electron pairs, often through Lewis bases. [1] The nature of metal–ligand bonding can ...
The chelate effect increases as the number of chelate rings increases. For example, the complex [Ni(dien) 2)] 2+ is more stable than the complex [Ni(en) 3)] 2+; both complexes are octahedral with six nitrogen atoms around the nickel ion, but dien (diethylenetriamine, 1,4,7-triazaheptane) is a tridentate ligand and en is bidentate. The number of ...
Dimethylglycine (DMG) is an amino acid, a building block for protein. The body needs dimethylglycine to function. Dimethylglycine is an essential amino acid, which means that the body cannot make ...
Dimethylglyoxime is a chemical compound described by the formula CH 3 C (NOH)C (NOH)CH 3. Its abbreviation is dmgH2 for neutral form, and dmgH− for anionic form, where H stands for hydrogen. This colourless solid is the di oxime derivative of the di ketone butane-2,3-dione (also known as diacetyl ). DmgH 2 is used in the analysis of palladium ...

A spectrochemical series is a list of ligands ordered by ligand "strength", and a list of metal ions based on oxidation number, group and element.For a metal ion, the ligands modify the difference in energy Δ between the d orbitals, called the ligand-field splitting parameter in ligand field theory, or the crystal-field splitting parameter in crystal field theory.
Denticity. In coordination chemistry, denticity (from Latin dentis 'tooth') refers to the number of donor groups in a given ligand that bind to the central metal atom in a coordination complex. [1] [2] In many cases, only one atom in the ligand binds to the metal, so the denticity equals one, and the ligand is said to be monodentate (sometimes ...
