Positively charged coordination ligands exist
Chemical literature documents various coordination complexes featuring positively charged ligands, such as sulfonium cations and substituted pyridinium derivatives. These findings confirm that ligands bearing a net positive charge are capable of coordinating with metal centers.
Both retrieved papers provide explicit examples of chemical complexes involving positively charged ligands, directly supporting the claim.
