Chiral complex from the following is :
Here en = ethylene diamine

Options:
Answer:
A
Solution:
Here en = ethylene diamine

[PtCl2(en)2]2+ forms cis and trans-isomers. Only the cis-isomers has no element of symmetry. So it is optically active. Trans - [PtCl2(en)2]2+ form is optically inactive. Square planar complexes doesn't exhibit optical isomerism.
