chelate compound
A chelate compound is a coordination compound in which an ion, usually metallic, is bonded to two or more atoms of a polydentate ligand. This ligand forms a heterocyclic ring of atoms that includes the central metal ion, creating a more stable structure compared to complex compounds with monodentate ligands. The term "chelate" comes from the Greek word "chele" which means claw, reflecting how the ligands hold the central ion.
