Linkage isomerism is a type of isomerism found in coordination compounds. It arises when a ligand can coordinate to a metal center in more than one way, leading to different structural arrangements. In linkage isomerism, the position of the binding site of a ligand changes. For example, some ligands contain multiple donor atoms, where only one of those atoms binds to the metal ion at a time.
