Question

Write structures for geometrical isomers of diamminebromochloroplatinum (II).

Answer 1

\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{H3N}\phantom{....}\ce{Br}\phantom{..}\\
\backslash\phantom{...}/\\
\ce{Pt}\\
/\phantom{...}\backslash\\
\phantom{}\ce{\underset{Cis-Diamminebromochoroplatinum (II)}{\phantom{}\ce{H3N} \phantom{...}\ce{Cl}}}\phantom{..}
\end{array}\]

\[\begin{array}{cc}
\ce{H3N}\phantom{....}\ce{Cl}\phantom{..}\\
\backslash\phantom{...}/\\
\ce{Pt}\\
/\phantom{...}\backslash\\
\phantom{}\ce{\underset{Trans-Diamminebromochoroplatinum (II)}{\phantom{...}\ce{Br} \phantom{....}\ce{NH3}}}\phantom{}
\end{array}\]
