Different spatial arrangements of a fixed ligand connectivity, including cis and trans arrangements in square-planar or octahedral complexes.
For ideal with equivalent ends of each chelate, the monodentate donors can be trans or cis. The cis form has two mirror-related configurations; the trans form is achiral when the chelate backbones introduce no additional stereochemistry.
A stereoisomer distinguished by the spatial arrangement of connected groups, such as cis versus trans ligands.
