Early Transition Metal Clusters with pi-Donor Ligands

The discovery and evolution of oranometallic cluster chemistry is a major event in the development of inorganic chemistry. This is the second volume in the series 'The Chemistry of Metal Clusters' edited by Du Shriver, Herb Kaesz, and Richard Adams.

This volume focuses on the chemistry of the early transition elements in their lower and middle oxidation states, i.e., halide, sulfide, oxide, phosphate, alkoxide, and related o-donor ligands. The key feature linking all these complexes in metal-metal bonding is the presence of pi-donor ligands.Die Entdeckung und Entwicklung der organometallischen Cluster-Chemie ist ein wichtiges Teilgebiet der Anorganischen Chemie. Der spezielle Komples der Metall-Metall-Verbindungen innerhalb des Themas der Übergangsmetalle ist dabei wiederum ein bedeutendes Kapitel in der modernen Komplexchemie. Dieser zweite Band der Reihe 'The Chemistry of Metal Clusters', herausgegeben von Du Shriver, Herb Kaesz und Richard Adams behandelt vornehmlich die Chemie der Cluster-Verbindungen von Metallcarbonyl und Metallphosphin. Vor allem wird die Chemie der Übergangselemente bei Halogenen, Sauerstoff, Schwefel, Phosphaten und Alkoxiden betrachtet. From the Contents:

Malcolm Harold Chisholm, FRS FRSE was a Scottish inorganic chemist who was a Professor of Chemistry and Biochemistry, and Distinguished University Professor of Mathematical and Physical Sciences at Ohio State University who contributed to the synthesis and structural chemistry of transition metal complexes. Early Transition Metal Clusters with -Donor Ligands Edited by Malcolm H. Chisholm The discovery and evolution of organometallic cluster chemistry is a major event in the development of inorganic chemistry. Early Transition Metal Clusters with -Donor Ligands, the second volume in the Chemistry of Metal Cluster Complexes Series (D.F. Shriver, H.D. Kaesz, R.D. Adams, Editors), focuses on the chemistry of the early transition elements in their lower and middle oxidation states, such as halide, sulfide, oxide, phosphate, alkoxide, and related hard donor ligands. The presence of -donor ligands links all of these complexes in metal-metal bonding. Written by highly respected authorities in the field of organometallic cluster chemistry, this book will be of interest to inorganic chemists, organometallic chemists, solid state chemists, materials scientists, and graduate students in inorganic chemistry.
