In inorganic chemistry, the trans effect is the labilization (making unstable) of ligands that are trans to certain other ligands, which can thus be regarded as trans-directing ligands. It is attributed to electronic effects and it is most notable in square planar complexes, although it can also be observed for octahedral complexes.〔Coe, B. J.; Glenwright, S. J. Trans-effects in octahedral transition metal complexes. ''Coordination Chemistry Reviews'' 2000, ''203'', 5-80.〕 The cis effect is most often observed in octahedral transition metal complexes. In addition to this ''kinetic trans effect'', trans ligands also have an influence on the ground state of the molecule, the most notable ones being bond lengths and stability. Some authors prefer the term trans influence to distinguish it from the kinetic effect, while others use more specific terms such as structural trans effect or thermodynamic trans effect.〔 The discovery of the trans effect is attributed to Ilya Ilich Chernyaev,〔Kauffmann, G. B. I'lya I'lich Chernyaev (1893-1966) and the Trans Effect. ''J. Chem. Educ.'' 1977, ''54'', 86-89.〕 who recognized it and gave it a name in 1926.〔Chernyaev, I. I. The mononitrites of bivalent platinum. I. ''Ann. inst. platine'' (USSR) 1926, ''4'', 243-275.〕 ==Kinetic trans effect== The intensity of the trans effect (as measured by the increase in rate of substitution of the trans ligand) follows this sequence: :F−, H2O, OH− < NH3 < py < Cl− < Br− < I−, SCN−, NO2−, SC(NH2)2, Ph− < SO32− < PR3, AsR3, SR2, CH3− < H−, NO, CO, CN−, C2H4 The classic example of the trans effect is the synthesis of cisplatin. Starting from PtCl42−, the first NH3 ligand is added to any of the four equivalent positions at random. However since Cl− has a larger trans effect than NH3, the second NH3 is added trans to a Cl− and therefore cis to the first NH3. : If, on the other hand, one starts from Pt(NH3)42+, the ''trans'' product is obtained instead: : The trans effect in square complexes can be explained in terms of an addition/elimination mechanism that goes through a trigonal bipyramidal intermediate. Ligands with a high trans effect are in general those with high π acidity (as in the case of phosphines) or low-ligand lone-pair–dπ repulsions (as in the case of hydride), which prefer the more π-basic equatorial sites in the intermediate. The second equatorial position is occupied by the incoming ligand; due to the principle of microscopic reversibility, the departing ligand must also leave from an equatorial position. The third and final equatorial site is occupied by the trans ligand, so the net result is that the kinetically favored product is the one in which the ligand trans to the one with the largest trans effect is eliminated.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Trans effect」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
