Coordination Chemistry – Reactions
Chapter 12: 452, 454-463
HW:1 2 3 4 5 9 14 15 19
SLIDES: Dec_7_inked
Goals: Rationalize LigExch products using mechanisms (SN1 and SN2)
Predict relative rates of ligand exchange wrt CFSE, ion radius, charge, coordination number
Memorize definition of these terms: anation, aquation, A/D/I mechanisms
Don’t worry about kinetic expressions!
