Description
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.
Organometallics are used extensively in
the synthesis of compounds on both large and small scales. Industrial processes involving plastics, polymers, electronic materials, and
pharmaceuticals all depend on advancements in organometallic chemistry.
