Book Description
In the hundred years since Alfred Werner proposed his theory of coordination compounds, coordination chemistry has grown to occupy a central position in chemical science. This book contains a selection of essays illustrating the state of the subject as it enters its second century. In addition to methods of synthesis and studies of structure and reactivity, particular attention is paid to the applications of coordination chemistry in fields as varied as biochemistry and medicine, organometallic chemistry, solid state chemistry, catalysis, and molecular receptors and devices.
