Molecular Chemistry of the Transition Elements

An Introductory Course

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Using a systematic and theoretical approach, this outstanding textbook offers a succinct introduction to the underlying principles of organometallic chemistry--with a strong emphasis on reactions mechanisms. It links theory with the chemical properties of the compounds, enabling students to classify the variety of compounds and to understand the basic reaction mechanisms of diverse classes of compounds. Chapters with selected applications help students to transfer the theoretical knowledge to real life chemistry. Contains numerous examples. Molecular Chemistry of the Transition Elements An Introductory Course François Mathey Ecole Polytechnique, Palaiseau, France and Alain Sevin Université Paris VI, France Molecular Chemistry of the Transition Elements combines a description of the experimental facts with theory,using the frontier orbital approach. After a brief history of organometallic chemistry and an introduction to the fundamental concepts of transition metal chemistry, the authors present the key groups of this field: hydrides, carbonyls, M-C bonds, M-M bonds, carbene and carbyne complexes, - complexes and phosphorus complexes. Later chapters survey the applications of transition metals in both organic synthesis and catalysis. Molecular Chemistry of the Transition Elements presents:
Integrated experimental and theoretical approaches
A detailed description of the major compounds of the field
The comprehensive theory of metal-metal single and multiple bonds
Applications of transition metals
An in-depth treatment of phosphorus ligands and their complexes
This new text is the necessary tool for students of inorganic, organic, organometallic and transition metal chemistry.
