Integrated Approach to Coordination Chemistry An Inorganic Laboratory Guide

An integrative, investigative approach to coordination chemistry This book offers a series of investigative inorganic laboratory exercises approached through systematic coordination chemistry. After an introduction that provides an overview of complex coordination concepts, Integrated Approach to Coordination Chemistry: An Inorganic Laboratory Guide leads readers on a progressive, graduated exploration of experimentation in the inorganic field. Core chapters cover: inorganic synthesis and quantitative analysis; molecular structure; substitution kinetics; and electron transfer reactions Advanced topics emphasize major applications of coordination complexes that have emerged over the past several decades: metals in medicine, the environment, molecular biology, and organic synthesis Each chapter features a project overview, at least five related experiments, and detailed references for further study The book conveys the historical development of coordination chemistry via experiment sets This guide includes experiments appropriate for college students at all levels, including graduate students. While they get a concise review of coordination chemistry, students also grasp the fundamentals of investigative techniques. An excellent lab manual, this is also ideal for students in bioinorganic chemistry and instrumental analysis. A complementary Instructor's Manual helps instructors plan, develop, and customize courses.Marusak, Rosemary A. is the author of 'Integrated Approach to Coordination Chemistry An Inorganic Laboratory Guide', published 2007 under ISBN 9780471464839 and ISBN 047146483X.
