Complexes with organic ligands but no C–metal bond are called?
AOrganometallic compounds
BMetal-organic compounds
CMetal carbonyl compounds
DMetal carbide compounds
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Metal-organic compounds
Without a direct carbon–metal bond the complex is metal-organic, not organometallic, as in copper(II) acetate.
