Question

What are σ and π complexes?

Answer 1

Answer:

sigma complex = 1) the formation of a sigma complex follows the initial formation of a complex known as a pi complex

2) sigma complex involve the actual bonding

3) lower energy and higher stability

pi complex= 1) In contrast t the sigma complex, the pi complex does not involve actual bonding

2) The electron transfer does not occur during the pi complex formation

3) higher and less stability than sigma complex
