Amino Acids Are Important Chelating Ligands That Bind to the Metal

Multiple Choice

Amino acids are important chelating ligands that bind to the metal through N and O atoms. Suppose you prepared a square planar platinum complex using D amino acid [Pt(D-AA) ₂]. Do you expect a chiral complex?

A) No, because square planar complexes can only have geometrical isomers.
B) Yes, because the amino acid is chiral.
C) No, because the chirality of one amino acid cancels the chirality of the second amino acid.
