Overview of Transition Metal Complexes 1.The coordinate covalent or dative bond applies in L:M
2.Lewis bases are called LIGANDS—all serve as σ-donors some are π-donors as well, and some are π-acceptors 3. Specific coordination number and geometries depend on metal and number of d-electrons 4. HSAB theory useful
a) Hard bases stabilize high oxidation states
b) Soft bases stabilize low oxidation states

Classification of Ligands: The L, X, Z Approach
Malcolm Green : The CBC Method (or Covalent Bond Classification) used extensively in organometallic chemistry. L ligands are derived from charge-neutral precursors: NH3, amines, N-heterocycles such as pyridine, PR3, CO, alkenes etc. X ligands are derived from anionic precursors: halides, hydroxide, alkoxide alkyls—species that are one-electron neutral ligands, but two electron donors as anionic ligands. EDTA4- is classified as an L2X4 ligand, features four anions and two neutral donor sites. C5H5 is classified an L2X ligand. Z ligands are RARE. They accept two electrons from the metal center. They donate none. The “ligand” is a Lewis Acid that accepts electrons rather than the Lewis Bases of the X and L ligands that donate electrons.

Electron Counting and the famous Sidgewick epiphany
Two methods: 1) Neutral ligand (no ligand carries a charge—therefore X ligands are one electron donors, L ligands are 2 electron donors.) 2) Both L and X are 2-electron donor ligand (ionic method)

H2 IrIII
Electron count: 16 e 18e Ir(I) d8 = 8 e Ir(III) d6 = 6 e
L ligands: 2 x (2) + 2 = 6 3 L ligands: 3 x 2 = 6 X- ligand: 2 3 X- ligands: 3 x 2 = 6 _
Oxidative addition of H2 to chloro carbonyl bis triphenylphosphine Iridium(I) yields Chloro-dihydrido-carbonyl bis-triphenylphosphine Iridium(III). Note the neutral pre- Cursor, H2, becomes two X- ligands once added to Ir.

So, how do we mix these ligands and metals with their various oxidation states to get stable molecules? 1. Hard/Soft Acid Base Approach to stability
2. Knowledge of preferred coordination numbers and geometries
