Inner Orbital Complexes: In inner orbital complexes, thed orbitals involved in the hybridizationare in a lower energy level than s and p orbitals. ... Outer Orbital Complexes: Outer orbital complexes are composed of metal atoms that use outermost shell d orbitals for the hybridization in the central metal atom.

Inner orbitals complexes:- Inner orbital complexes are coordination compounds composed of a central metal
atom having hybridization of the atomic orbitals including d orbitals of inner shell and
s, p orbitals from the outer shell. In other words, the central metal atom of these
complexes uses inner shell d orbitals for the hybridization of atomic orbitals. Therefore,
these d orbitals are in a lower energy level than s and p orbitals.
 
Outer Orbitals complexes:-  Outer orbital complexes are coordination compounds composed of a central metal
atom having hybridization of the atomic orbitals including s, p and d orbitals from the
outermost shell. Here, all atomic orbitals involved in the hybridization are in the same
energy level. Since the d orbitals involved in this hybridization are located outside the
s and p orbitals, the complexes formed from these metal atoms are called outer orbital
complexes.
