What type of structural isomerism is represented by the following complexes: (i) [Mn(CO)5 (SCN)]and [Mn(CO)5 (NCS)]
Linkage type of structural isomerism is represented in the given complexes. The presence of coordination compounds with the same composition but different connectivity of the metal to a ligand is known as linkage isomerism. The ligands showing linkage isomerism are SCN−and NCS− .
