ligand(ligand, also known asLigands)It is a chemical term, which means "can andCentral atom(metal orMetalloid)Bond producingatom、moleculeandIons。 In general, ligands provide at least one electron when participating in bonding.Ligand playLewis baseRole of.But in a few cases, ligands accept electrons and act asLewis acid。
stayOrganic chemistryLigands are often used to protect otherfunctional group(e.g. ligandBH3ProtectablePH3)Or stabilize some easily reactive compounds (such asTetrahydrofuranAs BHthreeLigands).Compounds formed by the combination of central atoms and ligands are calledComplex。

The atoms in the ligand that can provide lone pair electrons to form coordination bonds directly with the central atom are called coordination atoms, such as C in CO, etc.The outermost electron layer of the coordination atom has lone pair electrons, and the common ones are the atoms of non-metallic elements with greater electronegativity, such as N, O, C, S and halogens.
General ligands can be provided according to their charge, size andNumber of electronsAndatomCharacteristics.[1]

According to the number of coordination atoms in the ligand, the ligand can be divided into monodentate ligand and polydentate ligand.
Monodentate ligand: A ligand with only one coordination atom in one ligand.As NHthree、Htwo0, etc.
Polydentate ligand: A ligand with two or more coordination atoms in one ligand.Such as diethylene triamine HtwoNCHtwoCHtwoNHCHtwoCHtwoNHtwo(DEN for short) andEDTARoot (EDTA for short)
Two ligands: Some ligands contain two pairs of lone pair electrons, but because the two coordination atoms are too close, each ligand can only select one of the coordination atoms to form a coordination bond with a central atom. This ligand is called two ligands.The two ligands are still unidentate ligands.[2]
It can be used as a bridging ligand to connect two metal atoms by carbon atoms, or connect one metal atom by carbon atoms and nitrogen atoms respectively
