It has long been recognized that metal spin states play a central role in the reactivity of important biomolecules, in industrial catalysis and in spin crossover compounds. As the fields of inorganic chemistry and catalysis move towards the use of cheap, non-toxic first row transition metals, it is essential to understand the important role of spin states in influencing molecular structure, bonding and reactivity.
Spin States in Biochemistry and Inorganic Chemistry provides a complete picture on the importance of spin states for reactivity in biochemistry and inorganic chemistry, presenting both theoretical and experimental perspectives. The successes and pitfalls of theoretical methods such as DFT, ligand-field theory and coupled cluster theory are discussed, and these methods are applied in studies throughout the book. Important spectroscopic techniques to determine spin states in transition metal complexes and proteins are explained, and the use of NMR for the analysis of spin densities is described.
Topics covered include:
- DFT and ab initio wavefunction approaches to spin states
- Experimental techniques for determining spin states
- Molecular discovery in spin crossover
- Multiple spin state scenarios in organometallic reactivity and gas phase reactions
- Transition-metal complexes involving redox non-innocent ligands
- Polynuclear iron sulfur clusters
- Molecular magnetism
- NMR analysis of spin densities
This book is a valuable reference for researchers working in bioinorganic and inorganic chemistry, computational chemistry, organometallic chemistry, catalysis, spin-crossover materials, materials science, biophysics and pharmaceutical chemistry.

About the Author
Prof. Dr. Marcel Swart, Universitat de Girona, Spain
Marcel Swart is ICREA Research Professor in the Institute of Computational Chemistry Catalysis at the Universitat de Girona, Spain. He is a computational/theoretical chemist working in the field of (bio)chemistry and biomedicine. He has published >100 papers in peer-reviewed scientific journals and has an h-index of 26. He was awarded the Young Scientist 2005 award by ICCMSE (International Conference of Computational Methods in Sciences and Engineering), and was selected as one of the promising young inorganic chemists of "The next generation" that were invited to contribute to a special issue of Inorganica Chimica Acta in 2007, and to a special issue of Polyhedron in 2010.
In 2012, he was awarded the MGMS Silver Jubilee Prize "for his development of new computational chemistry programs, design of new research tools and application to (bio)chemical systems that are highly relevant for society and science." In September 2012 he organized a CECAM/ESF Workshop on "Spin states in biochemistry and inorganic chemistry", highlighted in Nature Chem. 2013, 5, 7-9.
Prof. Dr. Miquel Costas, Universitat de Girona, Spain
Miquel Costas became Professor Titular at the University of Girona in 2003. He has published over 70 papers in international journals that have received over 3470 citations. His research interests involve the study of transition metal complexes involved in challenging oxidative transformations, including functionalization of C-H bonds and water oxidation. These systems commonly operate in multistate reactivity scenarios, implicating multiple spin states.

Right of withdrawal
If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.
Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to GreatBookPrices, Bensenville, Illinois, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us.
