This primer addresses the chemistry of the second and third row d-block metals and assumes a knowledge of the chemistry of the first row metals. Beginning with a summary of basic properties, the book covers periodic trends, aqueous solution chemistry and redox properties, the range of coordination numbers shown by second and third row metals, electronic spectra and magnetic properties, metal-metal bonding, triple and quadruple bonds, bridging ligands, pi donar ligands in which metal-metal bonding is important, and polyoxometallates. The volume also contains a detailed guide for further reading and a section called "Metals in Action" which lists references for applications of d-block metals in such devices as catalytic converters and molecular wires.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book addresses the chemistry of the second and third row d-block metals, assuming a knowledge of the chemistry of the first row metals.Chapter 1 looks at the metals and summarizes occurrence, physical properties and uses.Chapter 2 considers periodic trends in properties.Chapter 3 considers aqueous solution chemistry, species present (with comparisons of the first row metal ions) and redoxproperties.Chapter 4 surveys structure: the range of coordination numbers shown by second and third row metals is often a topic for discussion in University courses.Chapter 5 looks at electronic spectra and magnetic properties, making comparisons with the first row the main objective of the chapter. Detailed mathematical treatments are not given.Chapter 6 considers metal-metal bonding, and the classes of compound that contain triple and quadruple bonds; the role of bridging ligands is introduced.Chapter 7 looks at selected clusters with a pi donar ligands (e.g. metal halo species) in whichmetal-metal bonding is important.Chapter 8 introduces the area of polyoxometallates, closing with a short discussion of the wide range of applications.The bookcontains many references to encourage wider reading by the student; in addition to textbooks of relevance, the author has included many recent literature citations, and a section called "Metals in Action" which gives citations which show the heavier metals at work in, for example, catalytic converters and molecular wires. This book addresses the chemistry of the second and third row d-block metals, assuming a knowledge of the chemistry of the first row metals. This item is printed on demand.
