Abstract

Almost all branches of chemistry and material science now interface with organometallic chemistry-the study of compounds containing carbon-metal bonds. Organometallic compounds range from species which are so reactive that they only have a transient existence at ambient temperatures to species which are thermally very stable. This widely acclaimed serial contains authoritative reviews that address all aspects of organometallic chemistry, a field which has expanded enormously since the publication of Volume 1 in 1964.
"This volume continues the series' exposition of timely and significant advances in the field."
--JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY
"This is a very interesting collection of reviews, maintaining the expected standard of this meritorious series, which is now an obligatory purchase of all chemistry libraries attached to academic and industrial research laboratories."
--JOURNAL OF ORGANOMETALLIC CHEMISTRY
"The volume maintains the traditional high standard of the series and ought to be considered essential for those involved in organo-transition metal chemistry research."
