The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we need to determine the sum of geometrical isomers for the complex \([Pt(H_2N-CH(CN_3)-CO^{\Theta}O)_2]\) and the stereoisomers for the complex \([Pt(gly)_3]^{o+}\). ### Step-by-Step Solution **Step 1: Analyze the first complex \([Pt(H_2N-CH(CN_3)-CO^{\Theta}O)_2]\)** 1. **Identify the coordination number and geometry**: - The platinum complex has a coordination number of 4, which typically leads to a square planar geometry. 2. **Identify the ligands**: - The ligands are \(H_2N\) (amine), \(CN_3\) (cyano), and \(CO^{\Theta}O\) (carbonyl). The complex has two identical ligands. 3. **Determine possible geometrical isomers**: - In a square planar complex, the two types of arrangements are cis and trans. - **Cis isomer**: Both \(H_2N\) and \(CO^{\Theta}O\) are adjacent to each other. - **Trans isomer**: The ligands \(H_2N\) and \(CO^{\Theta}O\) are opposite each other. 4. **Optical activity**: - The ligand \(H_2N-CH(CN_3)-CO^{\Theta}O\) is unsymmetrical, making the cis isomer optically active. - The trans isomer is not optically active due to symmetry. 5. **Count the geometrical isomers**: - We have 2 isomers for the cis configuration (due to optical activity) and 2 for the trans configuration. - Total geometrical isomers = 2 (cis) + 2 (trans) = 4. **Step 2: Analyze the second complex \([Pt(gly)_3]^{o+}\)** 1. **Identify the coordination number and geometry**: - The coordination number is 6, which indicates an octahedral geometry. 2. **Identify the ligands**: - Glycinate (gly) can coordinate through both nitrogen and oxygen, making it a bidentate ligand. 3. **Determine possible stereoisomers**: - In an octahedral complex with three bidentate ligands, we can have different arrangements. - The arrangement can be in alternating positions (N, O, N, O, N, O) or interchanged positions (N, O, O, N, N). 4. **Count the stereoisomers**: - Each arrangement can exist in two forms (D and L configurations). - Therefore, for each arrangement, we have 2 stereoisomers. - Total stereoisomers = 2 (for one arrangement) + 2 (for the second arrangement) = 4. **Step 3: Calculate the total isomers** - Total geometrical isomers from the first complex = 4. - Total stereoisomers from the second complex = 4. - Therefore, the sum of geometrical isomers and stereoisomers = 4 + 4 = 8. ### Final Answer The total number of isomers (geometrical + stereoisomers) is **8**.
