Coordination isomerism is a form of structural isomerism in which the composition of the complex ion varies. In a coordination isomer the total ratio of ligand to metal remains the same, but the ligands attached to a specific metal ion change.

Examples of a complete series of coordination isomers require at least two metal ions and sometimes more.For example, a solution containing ([Co(NH3)6]3+ and [Cr(CN)6]3−) is a coordination isomer with a solution containing [Cr(NH3)6]3+ and [Co(CN)6]3
