An integrated approach to organometallic chemistry, incorporating many new results. Provides historical background, and develops the subject from first principles to the latest developments. Topics include classification, nomenclature, nontransition– and transition–metal organometallics (preparation, properties, structures, and bonding), and fluxionality and applications. Includes critical analysis of the environmental aspects of main–group and transition–metal organometallic compounds. Contains many illustrative figures and charts.

Synopsis:
An integrated approach to the rapidly expanding field of organometallic chemistry, encompassing the tremendous transformations that have occurred in the field during the past three decades, is presented in this book. It begins with an historical perspective, and gradually develops all aspects of the subject from first principles to the latest developments. Topics covered include classification, nomenclature, nontransition- and transition-metal organometallics (preparation, properties, structures, and bonding), and fluxionality and applications. Also examined are the environmental aspects of main-group and transition-metal organometallic compounds in a critical and balanced way. Complex topics are explained clearly and the diverse reactions of several basic compounds are illustrated with figures and charts.
