- A Cyano
- B Ethylene diamine
- C Acetato
- D Dimethyl glyoximato
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Dimethyl glyoximato
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Bidentate ligands have two coordinating sites. The structure of the given ligands are as

en and dmg both are bidentate ligands but only dmg is negatively charged, so it is the correct answer.
