Define chelate and chelating ligand. Give one example of chelate complex.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

If ligands with two or more electron donor groups (coordinating groups) positioned in such a way that they form five or six membered rings with central metal ion. Then ligands are known as chelating ligands and the complex thus formed is known as metal chelate or chelate e.g `[Pt Cl_2(en)]`
