Expectations
Hypotheses
As the length of the
hydrocarbon chain
increases, the trans
isomer will become
more favorable.
Past a certain number
of carbons, the
hydrocarbon chain
will be so long that it
will form unintended
alternate bonds.

Ancillary Points
Hypothesis was
based solely on balland-stick models and
was proven correct
Knowledge of the
spatial geometry can
help predict the
complex’s properties
as well as those of
similar complexes.
Applications of transchelating
diphosphine ligands
in catalysis can now
be explored.
