Organometallics 2 by Manfred Bochmann

The interaction of transition metals with unsaturated molecules has led to fundamental insights in the nature of the chemical bond which, in turn, has provided the basis of important present-day applications such as transition metal mediated synthesis or homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis. This slim volume outlines the chemistry and discusses the bonding in of some of the most important classes of organometallic compounds: the complexes of transition metals with Pi-ligands such as alkenes, alkynes, arenes, and cyclopentadienyl and allyl ligands. The material covered follows on from Organometallics I which covers the chemistry of complexes with metal-carbon delta-bonds. Synthetic and reactivity aspects of each class of compounds are illustrated with pertinent examples from the recent chemical literature. Highlighted excursions relate the fundamental chemistry to current synthetic or catalytic applications.
'a solid, basic course for transition metal organic chemistry.. The book should be an 'aperitif' for every new student and stimulate more intensive study of the subject matter' Nachrichten aus Chemie Tecknik und laboratorium, Vol. 42, No. 12 (Dec. 1994)
The treatment is straightforward, easy to read, but not patronising. It should be a useful resource for many undergraduate courses. * Journal of Organometallic Chemistry 492 (1995) *
These two little volumes fulfil a need that has not yet been met by other books. Students, at least in the UK, often no longer have the funds to buy as many text books as one might desire, and these books appear to achieve comprehensiveness and cheapness at the same time. They are to be welcomed. * Journal of Organometallic Chemistry 492 (1995) *
