Abstract

With the increase in volume, velocity and variety of information, researchers can find it difficult to keep up to date with the literature in their field. This interdisciplinary field has the potential to provide answers to problems and challenges faced in catalysis, synthetic organic chemistry and the development of therapeutic agents and new materials. Providing an invaluable volume, Organometallic Chemistry Volume 41 contains analysed, evaluated and distilled information on the latest in organometallic chemistry research including developments and applications of Lewis acidic boron reagents, masked low-coordinate main group species in synthesis and the diiron centre.
