    Study Notes

    Exchange Dissociation Mechanism

    • The mechanism involves the exchange of a ligand (L') with a metal complex (ML6) to form a new complex (ML5L' + L)
    • Rate law: d[ML6]/dt = Kk[ML6][L] / (1 + K[L])
    • Under usual experiment conditions, rate law reduces to d[ML6]/dt = Kk[ML6][L]

    Base Hydrolysis of Complex

    • The reaction involves the hydrolysis of a metal complex ([Co(NH3)5Cl]2+) with OH- to form a new complex ([Co(NH3)5OH]2+)
    • Rate law: rate = k[Co(NH3)5Cl2+][OH-]
    • Proposed mechanism involves the formation of an intermediate ([Co(NH3)4(NH2)Cl]+) which then dissociates to form the final product
    • Rate-determining step is the dissociation of the intermediate

    Reaction of Coordination Compounds

    • There are two types of mechanisms in reduction-oxidation reactions: inner sphere and outer sphere

    Inner Sphere Mechanism

    • Involves the transfer of an electron through a bridging ligand
    • The bridging ligand exists in the reducing complex and has at least two pairs of lone pair electrons
    • The characteristic of the carrier ligand is that it can form a bridge between two complexes
    • The bond between the ligand and metal in the original complex is broken after the electron transfer process is finished

    Outer Sphere Mechanism

    • Involves the transfer of an electron without a bridging group
    • The rate of reaction depends on the approaching distance of the reactant molecules
    • Reaction occurs faster than inner sphere mechanism because no movement of atoms is required

    Kinetics and Mechanism of Coordination Compounds

    • Kinetics is the study of the rate of a reaction
    • Rate law equation: rate = k[A]a[B]b
    • Common rate laws: zero order, first order, and second order
    • A reaction's mechanism determines its rate law

    Reaction of Coordination Compounds

    • Coordination compounds undergo two types of reactions: substitution and redox reactions
    • The rate and mechanism of the reaction depend on the behavior of the metal present in the complex

    Substitution Reaction

    • There are two types of substitution reactions: ligand substitution and metal substitution
    • Ligand substitution is similar to SN reaction, while metal substitution is similar to SE reaction
