About this title

Synopsis

Design and Construction of Coordination Polymers

Edited by

Mao-Chun Hong

Ling Chen

A Unique Resource on coordination Polymers

Coordination polymers are a growing, interdisciplinary field with numerous potential applications in chemistry and materials. Design and Construction of Coordination Polymers provides a comprehensive introduction to this field, focusing on synthetic strategies, structures, properties, and potential applications. Each chapter provides a unique perspective on coordination polymers, offering a dedicated approach as well as deeper insights on the most important facets of this interdisciplinary area.

Combining the consistent editorial approach of a textbook with the up-to-date data and topics usually found in the latest monographs and handbooks, Design and Construction of Coordination Polymers offers an unparalleled reference to the state of the art. Among other topics, it covers:

• Coordination polymers with versatile structures
• Crystal engineering of coordination polymers
• Organic/inorganic hybrid complexes based on polyoxometalates
• Molecular-based magnetic and ferroelectric compounds
• Heavy main-group iodometalates
• Gas storage MOFs
• Bioinorganic coordination complexes

Addressing a wide range of readers, Design and Construction of Coordination Polymers will prove an invaluable resource to everyone from senior-level undergraduate and graduate students to working scientists.

About the Author

Mao-Chun Hong is Professor and Director of the Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter (FIRSM) at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). He was selected as the member of CAS in 2003. He received his MS from FIRSM in 1981 and his PhD from Nagoya University, Japan, 2002. He is the associate editor of Crystal Growth & Design and Chinese Journal of Structural Chemistry, and on the editorial boards for Inorganic Chemistry Communications, Inorg. Chim. Acta, and the Journal of Molecular Structure.

Ling Chen is Professor of the Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Matter (FIRSM) at the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). She received her MS from Beijing Normal University and her PhD from FIRSM, CAS, in 1999, and concluded her postdoctoral research at Iowa State University from 2000 to 2003. Professor Chen won an award in the "One Hundred Talent Project" from CAS in 2003. Her group's research efforts focus on inorganic and materials chemistry dealing with synthesis, characterization, and understanding of novel solid-state functional materials, especially thermoelectric multinary antimonides and tellurides.
