coordination compound
A coordination complex consists of a central atom or ion, which is usually metallic and is called the ''coordination centre'', and a surrounding array of bound molecules or ions, that are in turn known as ''ligands'' or complexing agents. Many ...
with the formula Pt(O2C5H7)2, abbreviated Pt(acac)2. The homoleptic acetylacetonate complex
Metal acetylacetonates are coordination complexes derived from the acetylacetonate anion () and metal ions, usually transition metals. The bidentate ligand acetylacetonate is often abbreviated acac. Typically both oxygen atoms bind to the metal t ...
