Progress in Inorganic Chemistry, Volume 58

by Kenneth D. Karlin (Editor)

Overview

This series provides inorganic chemists and materials scientists with a forum for critical, authoritative evaluations of advances in every area of the discipline. Volume 58 continues to report recent advances with a significant, up-to-date selection of contributions by internationally-recognized researchers.

The chapters of this volume are devoted to the following topics:

• Tris(dithiolene) Chemistry: A Golden Jubilee
• How to find an HNO needle in a (bio)-chemical Haystack
• Photoactive Metal Nitrosyl and Carbonyl Complexes Derived from Designed Auxiliary Ligands: An Emerging Class of Photochemotherapeutics
• Metal—Metal Bond-Containing Complexes as Catalysts for C—H Functionalization Iron Catalysis in Synthetic Chemistry
• Reactive Transition Metal Nitride Complexes

Suitable for inorganic chemists and materials scientists in academia, government, and industries including pharmaceutical, fine chemical, biotech, and agricultural.

About the Author

Kenneth D. Karlin is the Ira Remsen Professor of Chemistry at Johns Hopkins University. He received his PhD from Columbia University. Dr. Karlin's bioinorganic research focuses on coordination chemistry relevant to biological and environmental processes, involving copper or heme (porphyrin-iron) complexes.  Dr. Karlin's main approach involves synthetic modeling, i.e. biomimetic chemistry.  He is the winner of the prestigous F. Albert Cotton Award in Synthetic Inorganic Chemistry and the Sierra Nevada Distinguished Chemist Award, both awarded in 2009

What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

"...makes one realize that the discipline of inorganic chemistry is remarkably broad and new fields are continually being created...an important and valuable addition to the series." (Journal of the American Chemical Society, September 28, 2005)

Editorial Reviews

Both an index of the most influential and current research being done in inorganic chemistry, and a working reference featuring the work of internationally renowned chemists. Volume 42 contains five papers: Slow Proton-Transfer Reactions in Organometallic and Bioinorganic Chemistry, by K.W. Kramarz and J.R. Norton; Higher Oligopyridines as a Structural Motif in Metallosupramolecular Chemistry, by E.C. Constable; Ternary Transition Metal Sulfides, by B.W. Eichhorn; Organoamido Complexes of the Transition Metals, by D.E. Wigley; and Palladium Complex Catalyzed Oxidation Reactions, by A. Heumann, K.J. Jens, and M. Reglier. Includes a subject index to this volume and a cumulative author (with title) index for volumes 1-42. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
