[ NiCl4] 2– is paramagnetic while [ Ni(CN) 4 ] 2– is diamagnetic


Why is [ NiCl4 ] 2– paramagnetic while [ Ni(CN) 4 ] 2– is diamagnetic ?


The Ni(II) ion is 3d8 system. According to Hund’s rule the outer electronic configuration of Ni(II) ion is [ Ar ] 3d8.  From electronic configuration of Ni(II) ion , it is shown  that it has two unpaired electrons.

Now, depending upon the hybridization, there are two types of possible structure of Ni(II) complex are formed with co-ordination number 4.

If the complex involves ‘sp3’ hybridization, it would have tetrahedral structure . Again, If the complex involves ‘dsp2’ hybridization, it would have square planar  structure .

[Ni(NH3)6]Cl2 paramagnetic but [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 is diamagnetic



Why is [Ni(NH3)6]Cl2 paramagnetic but [Co(NH3)6]Cl3 is  diamagnetic ?


In case of [Ni(NH3)6]Cl2 complex, the oxidation state of nickel atom is +2 .The atomic number of nickel atom, 28 and that of Ni(II)ion is 26 .
Valence shell electronic configuration of Ni(II) ion is [ Ar ] d8 Coordination number of central metal Ni(II)ion : 6 . Arrangement of [Ni(NH3)6]Cl2 complex is Octahedral.

Now, the paramagnetic character of above said octahedral Ni(II) complex does not explained on the basis of crystal field theory.

Because,  the ligand NH3 is a strong field ligand. So, under the influence of the octahedral crystal field, the five degenerate d-orbitals of Ni(II) ion are splitted into two sets of  energetically different orbitals.

These two sets of orbitals are energetically lower t2g orbital and energetically higher eg orbital.



Now, the ligand NH3 is a strong field ligand and hence it is a low spin complex. Therefore, the electronic arrangement should be t2g6 eg2 .

Here, 10Dqo > P (pairingenergy) and hence all the electrons are paired.
Consequently, octahedral Ni(II) complex with strong field should be diamagnetic.

But,  actually the [Ni(NH3)6]Cl2 complex  is paramagnetic in nature. Therefore, the paramagnetic character of [Ni(NH3)6]Cl2 complex can be explained on the basis valence bond theory.

According to valence bond theory, the electronic arrangement of Ni(II)ion is as follows,


Under the strong field effect, the two unpaired electrons of 3d-orbital has to be shifted to higher 4d-orbitals in order to form low spin inner orbital complex.

This transfer of electrons from lower 3d to higher 4d-orbital is not energetically feasible.
Thus only outer orbital high spin complex is formed in Ni(II) six coordinated complex is formed through sp3d2 hybridization.

Under this condition, nickel ion in [Ni(NH3)6]Cl2 complex contain two unpaired electrons. Hence [Ni(NH3)6]Cl2complex is paramagnetic.

On the other hand,  in case of [Co(NH3)6]Cl3complex, the oxidation state of cobalt is +3 .The atomic number of cobalt : 27 and that of Co(III) ion : 24

The ligand NH3, which is a strong  field ligand. Co-ordination number of central metal Co(III) ion : 6 
Valence shell electronic configuration of Co(III) ion : [ Ar ] d6 .

Since, ligand NH3 is a strong field ligand, hence the complex is low spin one. Therefore, under the influence of the octahedral crystal field, the possible electronic arrangement of Co(III) ion is t2g6, eg0.

The octahedral crystal field splitting of [Co(NH3)6]Cl3complex is as follows,

activating groups-deactivating groups-definition-list-application


·        activating groups explain with an example

Activating groups are some chemical constituents which increase the electron 
density of benzene ring owing to their positive mesomeric effect and inductive effect.
In other words, there are some groups in organic chemistry, which have electron 

donating ability and they can activate the benzene ring through increasing the electron density of benzene ring, are called activating groups.

Since these type of groups activate the benzene ring, so they are called activator enhancer or activating groupsActivating groups are also called electron donating group.

Most of the activating groups contain one or more lone pair of electron.This lone pair of electron participate in resonance with the pi electron of benzene ring.

As a result, benzene ring with activating  groups become electron rich.That is, benzene ring acts as a source of electrons.

Therefore, benzene ring with activating group becomes more reactive towards   electrophilic substitution reaction than benzene ring without activating groups.

·        Activating groups list.


There are three types of activating groups are known in organic chemistry,  namely, strong activating groups, medium activating groups and weak activating groups.

Activating groups list of these three type are shown below.

Inner-metallic complexes-definition-examples-pH dependent


What is an inner-metallic complexes in chemistry ?


Inner-metallic complexes are those co-ordination complexes in which the ligand possess both neutral and acidic donor atom or group.

When a chelating ligand with both neutral as well as acidic group, form  one type of chelating complexes ,in which both the primary and the secondary valency of central metal atom is satisfied by the ligand simultaneously.

Then the resulting chelate complexes are called inner-metallic complexes .

What is an inner-metallic complexes in chemistry ?

For example, copper glycinate , [ Cu ( gly )2 ] , zinc acetyl acetonate, [ Zn (acac )2] etc.

The ligands used in the formation of inner-metalliccomplexes are , glycinate anion, acetyl acetonate anion and other amino acid etc.

What is an inner-metallic complexes in chemistry ?

All the Inner-metallic complexes are chelate complexes, but all the chelate complexes are not Inner-metallic complexes .

Because, inner-metallic complexes are neutral complex compound , but chelate compounds are may be cationic, anionic or neutral type .

Why are inner metallic complexes pH dependent ?


The ligands which are used in the formation of inner-metallic complexes are contained both neutral and acidic donor atom or group .

They satisfied both the primary and the secondary valency of central metal ion simultaneously.

Hence, inner-metallic complexes are generally neutral chelate complex. So, the pH value of inner-metallic complexes is 7, just middle point on the pH scale.

Outer orbital complexes-definition-octahedral complex


What is outer-orbital complexes in chemistry ?


Octahedral complexes  which is formed through sp3d2 hybridization, show that, 3d-orbitals of central metal ion remain unchanged.

In this case, outer 4d-orbtals are involved in hybridization and form octahedral complexes. 

Such a complex in which the central metal ion utilizes outer nd-orbitals is called outer-orbital complex.

For example, hexaaquo nickel(II)ion,[ Ni ( H2O )6 ]2+ and  hexaamine zinc(II)ion, [ Zn( NH3)6 ]2+ are two outer-orbital complex .

According to valence bond theory, the formation of [ Ni ( H2O )6 ]2+ complex ion is shown below.

What is outer-orbital complexes in chemistry ?
The outer-orbital complex has a large number of unpaired electrons than their number in inner orbital complex of the same metal ion due to unchanged of 

configuration of metal ion on complexation .Such a complex is also called high spin complex.


Why are octahedral complexes of Co2+,Ni2+,Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions always outer-orbital  ?



According to valence bond theory, it has been seen that, the octahedral complexes of Co2+,Ni2+,Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions are always outer-orbital .

This can be explained on the basis of their electronic arrangement . From their electronic arrangement it has been found that no ions among them have two vacant 3d-orbitals.

Because, all the above said ions contain seven or more electrons in their inner 3d-orbital.Hence, in the formation of octahedral complexes, they can’t attain d2sp3 hybridization.

That is, the metal ions, Co2+,Ni2+,Cu2+ and Zn2+ show sp3d2 hybridization by using their outervacant 4d-orbital.

Consequently, all the octahedral complexes of Co2+,Ni2+,Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions are always outer-orbital.

The electronic arrangement and hybridization of the Co2+,Ni2+,Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions are shown below.

Why are octahedral complexes of Co2+,Ni2+,Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions always outer-orbital  ?
The electronic arrangement and hybridization of Cu2+ and Zn2+ ions are same. 




Summary :
