The correct increasing order of trans-effect of the following species is

A

`NH_(3)gtCN^(-)gtBr^(-)gtC_(6)H_(5)^(-)`

B

`CN^(-)gtC_(6)H_(5)^(-)gtBr^(-)gtNH_(3)`

C

`Br^(-)gtCN^(-)gtNH_(3)gtC_(6)H_(5)^(-)`

D

`CN^(-)gtBr^(-)gtC_(6)H_(5)^(-)gtNH_(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Trans effect is the effect of a coordinated group upon the rate of substitution at the position trans to itself in a square or octahedral complex. As the rate of substitution of the trans ligand increases, the intensity of trans effect also increases. Thus, correct order is,
`CN^(-)gtC_(6)H_(5)^(-) gtBr^(-)gtNH_(3)`
