What is the ligand name of the chloride?
Answered by GPT-4o mini
The ligand name for chloride when it is coordinated to a metal in a complex is "chloro." In coordination chemistry, ligands are often named according to specific conventions, and the presence of chloride ions is denoted as "chloro" when naming the complex. For example, in the complex \([CuCl_4]^{2-}\), the chloride ions would be referred to as "chloro" in the name "tetrachlorocuprate(II)."
