Vedclass · Answer

(B) Optical activity in coordination compounds requires the absence of a plane of symmetry $(P.O.S.)$ and center of symmetry $(C.O.S.)$.$A$. Trans-$[CoCl_2(en)_2]^+$ has a plane of symmetry,so it is optically inactive.$B$. $[Pt(NH_2CH(CH_3)COO)_2]$ (bis(alaninato)platinum$(II)$) in its cis-form lacks a plane of symmetry and is optically active,as shown in the provided structure.$C$. $[Co(H_2O)_3F_3]$ (facial or meridional isomers) possesses planes of symmetry,making it optically inactive.Therefore,only the complex in option $B$ shows optical activity.

Which of the following compounds may show optical activity?
