Question
Octahedral complexes of copper (II) undergo structural distortion (Jahn-Teller). Which one of the given copper (II) complexes will show the maximum structural distortion ?
(en-ethylenediamine; $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{~N}-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{CH}_2-\mathrm{NH}_2$ )
Select the correct option:
A
$\left[\mathrm{Cu}\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_6\right] \mathrm{SO}_4$
B
$\mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{en})\left(\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{O}\right)_4 \mathrm{SO}_4$
C
cis- $\left[\mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{en})_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right]$
D
$\operatorname{trans}-\left[\mathrm{Cu}(\mathrm{en})_2 \mathrm{Cl}_2\right]$
✓ Correct! Well done.
✗ Incorrect. Try again or view the solution.
Solution
There is unsymmetric filling of $\mathrm{e}_{\mathrm{g}}$ subset of $\mathrm{Cu}^2$ ion, while there is symmetrical distribution in $\mathrm{t}_{2 g}$ set, if the complex has same ligand there will be equal repulsion which leads to symmetrical bond length along $\mathrm{t}_{2 \mathrm{~g}}$ but due to uneven filling of electron in $\mathrm{e}_{\mathrm{g}}$ subset, either octahedral will be elongated or compressed.
