There are two principal types of isomerisms in coordination compounds as follows :
(A) Stereoisomerism
(B) Structural isomerism (OR Constitutional isomerism)
(A) Stereoisomerism is further classified as :
- Geometrical isomerism
- Optical isomerism
(B) Structural isomerism is further classified as :
- Ionisation isomerism
- Linkage isomerism
- Coordination isomerism
- Solvate (or hydrate) isomerism
