Which of the following has an optical isomer?
(en=ethylenediamine) ?

A

`[Zn(en)(NH_(3))_(2)]^(2+)`

B

`[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)`

C

` [Co (H_(2) O)_(4) (en)]^(3+)`

D

`[Zn(en)_(2)]^(2+)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Complex `[Co(en)_(3)]^(3+)` has no plane of symmetry and centre of symmetry that's why it is optically active
