The term "carbon-functional organosilicon compound" is used for organosilicon compounds in which a functional group is bonded to an organic moiety that is in turn con nected to silicon via a Si-C bond. Thus, only Si-Cn-Y com pounds (Y designates a functional group) will be discussed in this book 1 Si-O-Cn-Y compounds will in general not be considered, although the latter group does include a large number of natural substances containing silylated hydroxyl groups. (Because of the differing importance of various Y groups, the reader will find some deviation from this restriction). Finally, compounds containing a silyl group as the functional group are not considered. An overview of the field o...
Stability constants are fundamental to understanding the behavior of metal ions in aqueous solution. Such understanding is important in a wide variety of areas, such as metal ions in biology, biomedical applications, metal ions in the environment, extraction metallurgy, food chemistry, and metal ions in many industrial processes. In spite of this importance, it appears that many inorganic chemists have lost an appreciation for the importance of stability constants, and the thermodynamic aspects of complex formation, with attention focused over the last thirty years on newer areas, such as organometallic chemistry. This book is an attempt to show the richness of chemistry that can be revealed...
Organometallic chemistry belongs to the most rapidly developing area of chemistry today. This is due to the fact that research dealing with the structure of compounds and chemical bonding has been greatly intensified in recent years. Additionally, organometallic compounds have been widely utilized in catalysis, organic synthesis, electronics, etc. This book is based on my lectures concerning basic organometallic chemistry for fourth and fifth year chemistry students and on my lectures concerning advanced organometallic chemistry and homogeneous catalysis for Ph.D. graduate students. Many recent developments in the area of organometallic chemistry as weIl as homogeneous catalysis are presente...
There is a certain fascination associated with words. The manipulation of strings of symbols according to mutually accepted rules allows a language to express history as well as to formulate challenges for the future. But language changes as old words are used in a new context and new words are created to describe changing situations. How many words has the computer revolution alone added to languages? "Inorganometallic" is a word you probably have never encountered before. It is one created from old words to express a new presence. A strange sounding word, it is also a term fraught with internal contradiction caused by the accepted meanings of its constituent parts. "In organic" is the name...
The field of gas phase inorganic ion chemistry is relatively new; the early studies date back approximately twenty years, but there has been intense interest and development in the field in the last ten years. As with much of modern chemistry, the growth in gas phase inorganic ion chemistry can be traced to the development of instrumentation and new experimental methods. Studies in this area require sophisticated instruments and sample introduc tion/ ionization methods, and often these processes are complicated by the need for state-selecting (or collisionally stabilizing) the reactive species in order to assign the chemistry unequivocally. At the present level of experimental development, a...
Focusing on practical applications, the author provides a balanced introduction to the many possible technological uses of metal complexes. Coverage includes the transition metals, lanthanide and actinide complexes, metal porphyrins, and many other complexes. This volume meets the needs of students and scientists in inorganic chemistry, chemical physics, and solid-state physics.
Organosilicon Chemistry provides information pertinent to the fundamental aspects and application of organosilicon chemistry. This book discusses the exact manner and extent of d-orbital involvement in organosilicon compounds in ground, electronic, and transition excited states. Organized into two parts encompassing 21 chapters, this book begins with an overview of preparing stable organosiliconium ions. This text then discusses the use of fused salts as reaction media in the preparative chemistry. Other chapters consider a detailed investigation on the molecular association and volatility of alkoxides of group (IV) elements. This book discusses as well the reaction between dimethyldichlorosilane and ethylene glycon, which has been shown to produce a dimeric ten-membered ring compound. The final chapter deals with the results of the investigations concerning the properties of the contact mass and of the non-volatile silicon-free products, which are produced in the direct synthesis of phenylhalogenosilanes. This book is a valuable resource for chemists and research workers.
