The IUPAC name of the following complex is $\left[\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{NH}_2ight)_2 \mathrm{Br}_2ight] \mathrm{Br}$
  1. bis (ethane-1, 2-diamine) dibromido cobalt (III) bromide.
  2. di (ethane-1, 2-diamine) dibromido cobalt (III) bromide.
  3. tribromido bis (ethane-1, 2-diamine) cobalt (III).
  4. dibromido bis (ethylene diamine) cobalt (III) bromide.

Solution

The correct IUPAC name of complex compound [ $\left.\mathrm{Co}\left(\mathrm{NH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{NH}_2ight)_2 \mathrm{Br}_2ight] \mathrm{Br}$ is dibromidobis (ethylene diamine) cobalt (III) bromide. Note Here $\mathrm{H}_2 \mathrm{NCH}_2 \mathrm{CH}_2 \mathrm{NH}_2$ is ethylene diamine which is a bidentate ligand. *
