Q. Which of the following does not have optical isomer?

Jharkhand CECEJharkhand CECE 2007

Solution:

Octahedral complexes of type $ [M{{a}_{2}}{{b}_{2}}{{c}_{2}}] $ and [Mabcdef], $ [M{{(AA)}_{3}}],\,[M{{(AA)}_{2}}{{a}_{2}}], $ $ [M(AA){{a}_{2}}{{b}_{2}}],[M{{(AA)}_{2}}ab] $ and $ [M{{(AA)}_{3}}] $ show optical isomerism due to asymmetric molecules, octahedral complex of type $ [M{{a}_{4}}{{b}_{2}}] $ and $ [M{{a}_{3}}{{b}_{3}}] $ do not show optical isomerism
