Covers coordination numbers, common ligands, and preferred geometries in coordination chemistry, emphasizing the spatial distribution between ligands and the role of d⁸ electron configurations.
Explores the Spectrochemical Series for metals and ligands, Crystal Field Splitting, Jahn-Teller distortion, and bonding interactions in coordination compounds.
Explores metal speciation, complexation, kinetics of ligand exchange reactions, and the relationship between thermodynamics and kinetics for metal complexes.
