This is one isomer of the [tris(α-picoylamine)Fe(II)]2+ ion More Info/Ref
1. Determine the symmetry operations for the molecule and assign it to a point group.
2. Is this ion chiral? If so, is this a Λ or a Δ Isomer? If it is not chiral, give an explanation based on symmetry arguments.
3. What is the d electron count for the metal? Do you expect any distortions based on the d electron configuration of the metal?
