Which of the following complex has a possibility to exist as meridional isomer?

Which of the following complex has a possibility to exist as meridional isomer?
  1. [Co(NH3)3(NO2)3]
  2. [Pt (NH3)2Cl2]
  3. [Co(en)2Cl2] 
  4.  [Co(en)3]

Solution

The type of the complex MA3B3 exhibit the geometrical isomerism fac-mer isomerism. When three ligands and the metal are in one plane, the isomer is said to be meridional, or mer.

[Co(NH3)3(NO2)3] can show facial and meridional isomerism.
