5 A Very Quick Look at Organometallic and Inorganic Bonding 

Now let s examine the analogies that can be drawn between the rest of the d orbitals and p orbitals. When citing down the x axis, the d and d y orbitals look like two orthogonal p orbitals. Likewise, citing down the y axis, both the and d y look like p orbitals. Therefore, these orbitals are considered to have -n symmetry. When creating double bonds to ligands.

Schematic representations of d orbitals and their analogous carbon orbitals. A. Looking along the positive z axis (designated as an eyeball), the carbon hybrid along the z axis appears the same as a orbital. They are
