Some important aspects of transition metal ions: 1
Some important aspects of transition metal ions: 1. The valence electrons are in d orbitals 2. The d orbitals do not have large radial extension 3. The d orbitals are therefore mostly nonbonding in complexes of transition metal ions 4. For these reasons, the effects of redox changes are substantially smaller for transition metals than for main group elements

Names 1. In naming the entire complex, the name of the cation is given first and the anion second (just as for sodium chloride), no matter whether the cation or the anion is the complex species In the complex ion, the name of the ligand or ligands precedes that of the central metal atom. (This procedure is reversed from writing formulae.) 3. Ligand names generally end with 'o' if the ligand is negative ('chlorido' for Cl-, 'cyanido' for CN-, 'hydrido' for H-) and unmodified if the ligand is neutral ('methanamine' for MeNH2). Special ligand names are 'aqua' for water, 'ammine' for ammonia, 'carbonyl' for CO, 'nitrosyl' for NO.

4. A Greek prefix (mono, di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa, etc
4. A Greek prefix (mono, di, tri, tetra, penta, hexa, etc.) indicates the number of each ligand (mono is usually omitted for a single ligand of a given type). If the name of the ligand itself contains the terms mono, di, tri, eg triphenylphosphine, then the ligand name is enclosed in parentheses and its number is given with the alternate prefixes bis, tris, tetrakis instead. For example, NiCl2(PPh3)2 is named dichloridobis(triphenylphosphane)nickel(II). Again, one would use diammine, for (NH3)2, but bis(methylamine), for (NH2Me)2, to make a distinction from dimethylamine. (Note that this ambiguity does not arise if the preferred IUPAC name, methanamine, is used instead of methylamine). There is no elision of vowels or use of a hyphen, e.g. in tetraammine and similar names. Some texts suggest that if a ligand is "complicated" then use the bis, tris multipliers. What constitutes "complicated" is not spelled out however, so a simpler approach is to use them if the name of the ligand is three or more syllables long! Copyright © Houghton Mifflin Company.

5. A Roman numeral or a zero in parentheses is used to indicate the oxidation state of the central metal atom If the complex ion is negative, the name of the metal ends in 'ATE' for example, ferrate, cuprate, nickelate, cobaltate etc If more than one ligand is present in the species, then the ligands are named in alphabetical order regardless of the number of each. For example, NH3 (ammine) would be considered an 'a' ligand and come before Cl- (chlorido). (This is where the 1971 rules differed from the 1959 rules. Some texts still say that ligands are named in the order: neutral then anionic).
