Chelate

Japanese: キレート
Chelate

Also called a chelate compound. A compound in which a polydentate ligand is coordinated to a central atom. Originally, the name was used for compounds in which a bidentate ligand coordinates in such a way that it sandwiches the metal atom, such as ethylenediamine, but now it is also used widely for polydentate ligands. "Chelate" means "crab's claws" in Greek. A heterocycle formed by a metal atom and a polydentate ligand is called a chelate ring, and the phenomenon of forming a chelate ring is called chelation.
