The coordination compound [CoCl2(NH3)4]+ exhibits cis-trans isomerism and optical isomerism. The cis-isomer has adjacent chloride ions (90° apart), while the trans-isomer has opposite chloride ions (180° apart). The cis-isomer can also show optical isomerism due to non-superimposable mirror images.
