Description for Organometallics and Catalysis: An Introduction
Paperback. A succinct review of the essential concepts of organometallic chemistry, enriched throughout with examples that demonstrate how our understanding of organometallic chemistry has led to new applications in research and industry - not least in relation to catalysis. Num Pages: 432 pages, 640. BIC Classification: PNND; PNRD. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (U) Tertiary Education (US: College). Dimension: 244 x 189 x 15. Weight in Grams: 814.
Organometallic chemistry explores the chemistry of the often bewildering variety of compounds featuring metal-carbon bonds. A field that has underpinned the development of new synthetic methods and materials, it is also central to our understanding of catalysis. In his text, Manfred Bochmann distils the extensive knowledge of the field into a succinct overview of essential concepts. The book is enriched throughout with examples that demonstrate how our understanding of organometallic chemistry has led to new applications in research and industry - not least in relation to catalysis - and an extensive reaction schemes and structures give added clarity to the concepts being explained. Striking just the right balance between breadth and depth - and with features throughout to support the learning process - Organometallics and Catalysis is the perfect introduction for undergraduate and graduate students who need a thorough grounding on the subject or are embarking on new research areas.

About Manfred Bochmann
Manfred Bochmann is Professor of Inorganic Chemistry and Director of the Wolfson Materials and Catalysis Centre at the University of East Anglia where his research centres broadly around synthetic organometallic and coordination chemistry directed towards homogeneous catalysis. A former Head of the School of Chemistry, in 2003 he was awarded the Royal Society of Chemistry Medal for Organometallic Chemistry. Professor Bochmann is the author of two Oxford Chemistry Primers on organometallic chemistry, and is an Associate Editor of the journal Organometallics.
Reviews for Organometallics and Catalysis: An Introduction
Bochmann has done an excellent job. While providing broad coverage of the literature, it is organized in a fashion that will make the chemistry readily understandable to students and yet is comprehensive enough to be an excellent reference book for practitioners of organometallic chemistry. I believe this book will become the new standard text for teaching organometallic chemistry at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
Douglas W. Stephan, University of Toronto
This comprehensive, well organised, clearly illustrated, and fully up-to-date book is essential reading for advanced undergraduates and postgraduate research students working in, or at the borders, of contemporary organometallic chemistry and catalysis.
Philip Mountford, University of Oxford
The breadth and depth in which topics are covered is particularly impressive; the lucid writing style will allow students to understand the key concepts readily, and a series of carefully crafted exercises throughout the book provide valuable opportunities for testing this understanding. Teachers of organometallic chemistry will find this superb book to be an indispensable resource.
