Coordination Chemistry Research Progress

Coordination chemistry is the study of compounds formed between metal ions and other neutral or negatively charged molecules. Coordination chemistry includes areas of inorganic solid state chemistry, organometallic chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry, as well as applications to analytical chemistry, catalysis, industrial chemistry and materials science.

The longest paper in this collection shows how the intermediate spin state in iron(III) porphyrin complexes can be increased in six coordinate mixed systems and in the cytochrome c' model where only one imidazole molecule coordinates to the iron(III) ion. Other topics of the ten papers include optimizing the photoreactivity of chemical compounds, multiple-bonded and aromatic organotin compounds, ligand effects on 3-membered hydrocopper rings, and magnetostructural D-correlation for zero field splitting in nickel(II) complexes. No paper selection process or peer review is noted.

The budding field of nanotechnology offers enormous potential for advances in medical science, engineering, transportation, computers, and many other industries. As this growing field solidifies, these technological advances may soon become a reality. Nanoscience and Advancing Computational Methods in Chemistry: Research Progress provides innovative chapters covering the growth of educational, scientific, and industrial research activities among chemical engineers and provides a medium for mutual communication between international academia and the industry. This book publishes significant research reporting new methodologies and important applications in the fields of chemical informatics and discusses latest coverage of chemical databases and the development of new experimental methods.

Contains biographical chapters on famous chemists, historical and contemporary, in coordination chemistry and chapters describing historical aspects of the field. Examines current issues in isomerism and other aspects of coordination chemistry. Reviews applications of coordination chemistry, including solvent extraction of metals, materials chemistry, and environmental chemistry. Includes contributions from Nobel laureates Glenn T. Seaborg and Linus Pauling, and an introduction by Joseph Chatt. Organized to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the publication of Alfred Werner's coordination theory, the volume's 37 chapters include papers presented at the Coordination Chemistry Symposium as well as additional invited papers.
