Inverse Coordination Chemistry
A Novel Chemical Concept
by Ionel Haiduc, Edward R.T. Tiekink
Inverse Coordination Chemistry: A Novel Chemical Concept features and discusses the interesting array of inverse coordination complexes, from those with monoatomic or polyatomic centres to those with organic molecules as centres. While traditional coordination complexes consist of a metal atom at the centre surrounded by inorganic ligands, inverse coordination complexes show a reversed topology: a central non-metal atom surrounded by metallic ligands. Concisely written and with full-coloured illustrations, this book is a timely and comprehensive introduction to this exciting but largely overlooked field of inverse coordination in inorganic chemistry. This book serves as an invaluable resource for chemists, educators, and students. Click here for more information
