Index with full names of neutral-molecule ligands

Subject: Coordination Chemistry - Neutral Ligands
Maintained by Axel Drefahl • www.axeleratio.com

The following index contains full names of neutral-molecule ligands in alphabetical order. The purpose of the index is to find commonly used abbreviations and short forms for ligands. Selected ligand names are linked to a page showing the structure of the ligand and also giving examples of complex notations applying the abbreviation.
