[tex]\bigstar[/tex] An ambidentate ligand is a ligand that can bind to a central atom in two different places, using two different donor atoms. However, it can only bond with one of the donor atoms at a time. Ambidentate ligands are often linear in geometry.

[tex]\bigstar[/tex] Here are some examples of ambidentate ligands :
[tex]\bigstar[/tex] NO2 :
Can attach to a central metal atom through either nitrogen or oxygen. For example, it can form M-NO2 or M-ONO.
_______________________________________
[tex]\bigstar[/tex] SCN :
Can attach to a central metal atom through either nitrogen or sulfur. For example, it can form M-SCN or M-NCS.

[tex]\bigstar[/tex] CN :
Can attach to a central metal atom through either carbon or nitrogen. For example, it can form M-CN or M-NC.
