"Many may find it rewarding to sample a few chapters that arerelevant to their main interests or just to get an idea of what canstill be done with this 'classic' organometallic molecule.„(Journal of the American Chemical Society, February 4, 2009)
“It will be very useful as a reference source for everyoneinvolved in research in the rapidly developing field of ferrocenechemistry." (Angewandte Chemie, September 22, 2008 )
Ferrocene--the prototypical metallocene--is a fascinatingmolecule. Even though it was first discovered over fifty years ago, research into ferrocene-containing compounds continues apace, largely stimulated by their successful applications in catalysis, materials science and bioorganometallic chemistry. Ferrocenederivatives are now recognised as useful starting materials for thepreparation of new organometallic complexes and functionalmaterials, efficient catalyst components, as well as redox-activemodifiers to biomolecules.
Ferrocenes: Ligands, Materials and Biomolecules providesthe reader with a background overview and describes recent advancesin the development and application of ferrocene compounds, including:
* synthesis and catalytic utilisation of chiral and non-chiralferrocene ligands
* ferrocene-based sensors
* electrooptical materials
* ferrocene polymers
* liquid-crystalline materials
* crystal engineering with ferrocene compounds
* the bioorganometallic chemistry of ferrocene
Ferrocenes: Ligands, Materials and Biomolecules is anessential guide for anyone working in the fields of organometallicsynthesis and catalysis, materials science and bioorganometallicchemistry.
