Oxidation Numbers of Metals in Coordination Compounds

Transition metals typically form several oxidation states and therefore have several oxidation numbers.

Isomers in Coordination Compounds

Coordination stereoisomers have the same bonds in different orientations; structural isomers have different bonding orientations.
