Description
Pincer complexes are formed by the binding of a chemical structure to a metal atom with at least one carbon-metal bond. Usually the metal
atom has three bonds to a chemical backbone, enclosing the atom like a pincer. The resulting structure protects the metal atom and gives
it unique properties.
The last decade has witnessed the continuous growth in the development of pincer complexes. These species have
passed from being curiosity compounds to chemical chameleons able to perform a wide variety of applications. Their unique metal bound
structures provide some of the most active catalysts yet known for organic transformations involving the activation of bonds. The
Chemistry of Pincer Compounds details use of pincer compounds including homogeneous catalysis, enantioselective organic transformations,
the activation of strong bonds, the biological importance of pincer compounds as potential therapeutic or pharmaceutical agents, dendrimeric
and supported materials.
Audience
Researchers in metal-mediated organic synthesis, homogeneous catalysis, organometallic chemistry and catalysis. Students studying in the organometallic chemistry field.
