‘cisplatin – PtCl2(NH3)2 – is a ‘co-ordination complex’ of platinum(II) with 2 chloride and 2 ammonia ligands*
*it is 1 of the most successful ‘anti-cancer drugs’*
.
.
-in [chemistry], a [co-ordination complex] consists of a central ‘atom’ (or ‘ion’), which is usually ‘metallic’ and is called the coordination center, and a surrounding array of bound ‘molecules’ (or ‘ions’), that are in turn known as ligands (or ‘complexing agents’)-
.
(many ‘metal-containing compounds’, especially those of ‘transition metals’, are ‘coordination complexes’ (or ‘complices’?))
.
(a ‘coordination complex’ whose center is a ‘metal atom’ is called a ‘metal complex’)
