Abstract:
In this review article, we have illustrated the strategies developed to achieve inorganic-organic hybrid compounds with technologically important physical properties. A series of target inorganic-organic hybrid compounds have been accomplished by incorporating the functional organic components (with a large hyperpolarizability and luminophore Schiff base cation) into the highly polarizable one-dimensional (1-D) iodoplumbate chain network. The effect of substituent features in the phenyl ring of the Schiff base cation on its molecular conformation as well as the crystal packing structure of the hybrid compound will be discussed and the multiple physical properties (ferroelectricity, NLO and multiple band emission) will also be mentioned.

02:34Structural Isomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula. Structural isomerism of coordination compounds can be divided into two subcategories, the linkage isomers and coordination-sphere isomers.
Linkage isomers occur when the coordination compound contains a ligand that can bind to the transition metal center through two different atoms. For example, the CN− ligand can bind through the carbon atom or through the nitrogen atom. Similarly, SCN− can be...

02:42Ionic Crystal Structures
Most monatomic ions behave as charged spheres, and their attraction for ions of opposite charge is the same in every direction. Consequently, stable structures for ionic compounds result (1) when ions of one charge are surrounded by as many ions as possible of the opposite...
02:52Stereoisomerism
Isomers are different chemical species that have the same chemical formula.
Transition metal complexes often exist as geometric isomers, in which the same atoms are connected through the same types of bonds but with differences in their orientation in space. Coordination complexes with two different ligands in the cis and trans positions from a ligand of interest form isomers. For example, the octahedral [Co(NH3)4Cl2]+ ion has two isomers (Figure 1) In the cis...
