The correct IUPAC name of [NiCl₂(PPh₃)₂] is

Question

Accepted Answer

B. {'text': 'Dichloridobis(triphenylphosphine)nickel(II)', 'label': 'B'}

1. Ligands are alphabetised: chloro (or chlorido) comes before triphenylphosphine.
2. The prefix "bis" (not di) is used for ligand names already carrying a numeric prefix.
3. Oxidation state of Ni is +2, indicated in Roman numerals.
4. So NCERT names it dichloridobis(triphenylphosphine)nickel(II).
