  2. Coordinate covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_covalent_bond

    In coordination chemistry, a coordinate covalent bond, [1] also known as a dative bond, [2] dipolar bond, [1] or coordinate bond [3] is a kind of two-center, two-electron covalent bond in which the two electrons derive from the same atom. The bonding of metal ions to ligands involves this kind of interaction. [4]

  3. Chloro(pyridine)cobaloxime - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloro(pyridine)cobaloxime

    Chloro(pyridine)cobaloxime is a coordination compound containing a Co III center with octahedral coordination. It has been considered as a model compound of vitamin B 12 for studying the properties and mechanism of action of the vitamin.

  4. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    [1] [2] [3] Introduced by Gilbert N. Lewis in his 1916 article The Atom and the Molecule, a Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded molecule, as well as coordination compounds. [4] Lewis structures extend the concept of the electron dot diagram by adding lines between atoms to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond.

  5. Coordination polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_polymer

    A coordination polymer is an inorganic or organometallic polymer structure containing metal cation centers linked by ligands. More formally a coordination polymer is a coordination compound with repeating coordination entities extending in 1, 2, or 3 dimensions. [1] [2] It can also be described as a polymer whose repeat units are coordination ...

  6. Polyhedral symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyhedral_symbol

    The polyhedral symbol is sometimes used in coordination chemistry to indicate the approximate geometry of the coordinating atoms around the central atom. One or more italicised letters indicate the geometry, e.g. TP-3 which is followed by a number that gives the coordination number of the central atom. [1]

  7. Coordination number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordination_number

    In chemistry, crystallography, and materials science, the coordination number, also called ligancy, of a central atom in a molecule or crystal is the number of atoms, molecules or ions bonded to it. The ion/molecule/atom surrounding the central ion/molecule/atom is called a ligand. This number is determined somewhat differently for molecules ...

  8. Dihydrogen complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydrogen_complex

    Dihydrogen complexes are coordination complexes containing intact H 2 as a ligand. They are a subset of sigma complexes. [1] The prototypical complex is W(CO) 3 (PCy 3) 2 (H 2). This class of compounds represent intermediates in metal-catalyzed reactions involving hydrogen. Hundreds of dihydrogen complexes have been reported.

  9. Pentagonal bipyramidal molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagonal_bipyramidal...

    Structure of iodine heptafluoride, an example of a molecule with the pentagonal-bipyramidal coordination geometry. In chemistry, a pentagonal bipyramid is a molecular geometry with one atom at the centre with seven ligands at the corners of a pentagonal bipyramid. A perfect pentagonal bipyramid belongs to the molecular point group D 5h.
