Crystallography in Modern Chemistry

A comprehensive resource book providing professionals and students with a broad survey of structural information delineating the parallel development of crystallography and modern chemistry. Provides detailed description of crystal structures in increasing levels of complexity, from metals to organics, inorganics, organometallics, and inclusion compounds. Examples used to illustrate topics have been carefully selected to reflect the major advances of recent years and to bring the reader to the forefront of active research by including topics of current interest.Dieses einzigartige Kompendium der Kristallstrukturen von metallischen, organischen, anorganischen, organometallischen und Einschlußverbindungen - sortiert nach steigender Komplexität - sollte in der Bibliothek keines Chemikers oder Biochemikers fehlen! Reich ausgestattet mit über 100 Abbildungen, Elementarzellparametern und Atomkoordinaten für jede Grundstruktur und ausführlichen Diskussionen der aus der Röntgenkristallstrukturanalyse erhältlichen Daten.

THOMAS C. W. MAK is Chair Professor in the Department of Chemistry at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. His research activities are in the area of chemical crystallography, particularly the synthesis and structural characterization of clathrate inclusion compounds, organic salt hydrates, and hydrogen-bonded molecular adducts.

GONG-DU ZHOU is Professor of Chemistry at Peking University. He is the author of more than ten popular Chinese texts on X-ray crystallography, chemical bonding, and structural chemistry, one of which has been translated into English and entitled Fundamentals of Structural Chemistry.
