Early Transition Metal Clusters with pi-Donor Ligands

Early Transition Metal Clusters with -Donor Ligands Edited by Malcolm H. Chisholm The discovery and evolution of organometallic cluster chemistry is a major event in the development of inorganic chemistry. Early Transition Metal Clusters with -Donor Ligands, the second volume in the Chemistry of Metal Cluster Complexes Series (D.F. Shriver, H.D. Kaesz, R.D. Adams, Editors), focuses on the chemistry of the early transition elements in their lower and middle oxidation states, such as halide, sulfide, oxide, phosphate, alkoxide, and related hard donor ligands. The presence of -donor ligands links all of these complexes in metal-metal bonding. Written by highly respected authorities in the field of organometallic cluster chemistry, this book will be of interest to inorganic chemists, organometallic chemists, solid state chemists, materials scientists, and graduate students in inorganic chemistry.
