Chemistry of Metal Clusters
1 total work
In recent years there has been an explosive growth in the study of metal cluster compounds. This book provides a badly needed summary of the current knowledge in the field. Written and edited by a team of internationally recognized experts - themselves at the forefront of cluster chemistry research -, it offers detailed coverage of the synthesis, bonding, structure and reactivity of clusters. The individual chapters are coordinated and provide authoritative and up-to-date information. The primary and review literature is covered extensively, and subject and formula indices are given. Students and newcomers to the field will appreciate the thorough introductions in each chapter. Both they and active research workers will find this volume a thought-provoking summary and a useful reference work.
