Phthalocyanines Properties and Applications Edited by C.C. Leznoff A.B.P. Lever This volume, which includes 13 critical reviews of the fundamental, synthetic, biological, and applied chemistry of the phthalocyanine derivatives, completes the Phthalocyanine series. Together, Volumes 1 through 4 cover a broad spectrum of the physical and chemical aspects of the phthalocyanines and related compounds. From the Reviews of the Series "We are very favorably impressed with this book, and will not hesitate to add it to our libraries as an extremely valuable source book." -Photochemistry and Photobiology ". a valuable resource on the current state of phthalocyanine science and technology." -Journal of the American Chemical Society ". strongly recommended for chemists. it provides highly readable descriptions in basic areas of research." -Physics in Canada ". stimulating for industrial, medical, and academic researchers." -Chemical Engineering World ". a must for those who are in the field of pure or applied phthalocyanine research or interested in entering the field." -Spectrochimica Acta

Up-to-date and written by leading experts, this book is unique in a rapidly expanding field. It provides in-depth discussions and descriptions of the materials, electronic properties and applications of phthalocyanines. Aspects of phthalocyanines covered include* synthesis* polymer aspects* electronic spectroscopy* excited state chemistry and physics* chemical sensors* biological aspects (e.g. photodynamic therapy of cancer) The numerous tables, chemical structures, and references are particularly handy source materials for both the novice and experienced researcher and industrial practitioner interested in phthalocyanines.

Continuing with the expert discussion and many of the topics introduced in the first volume, the editors and their selected contributors offer detailed coverage of phthalocyanine chemistry.

The unique properties of phthalocyanines have generated worldwide interest in their use in chemical sensors, fuel cells, molecular metals, molecular computers, pollution control, and information technology.Volume 3 of this series continues the detailed coverage of the fundamental and applied chemistry of the phthalocyanine derivatives. Eight distinguished experts discuss different aspects of the field. This book also contains a considerable collection of tables, chemical structures, and graphic representations, along with an extensive, up to date array of references.

The definitive reference for phthalocyanine compound research and application By themselves as macrocyclics, phthalocyanines are of limited use; however, their metal complexes are critical to numerous industries as dyes, pigments, and industrial catalysts. Phthalocyanines is a complete, comprehensive reference toward the properties and applications of these compounds, presented as a four-volume set. Covering all aspects of synthesis, bonding, behaviors, characteristics, spectroscopy, hazards, reactions, and much more, this set provides chemists, biochemists, and molecular biologists with the information they need to work effectively with this large family of compounds.

-Journal of Chemical Education This newly available paperbound edition of Inorganic Electronic Structure and Spectroscopy includes all the material from the original clothbound edition published in 1999. Consisting of articles contributed by outstanding scientists from around the world, Volume II, Applications and Case Studies represents the state of the art in this field, written in a style accessible to the well-read senior undergraduate, and yet still of superior value to the senior researcher. The second of a two-volume set, Volume II explores various compounds of interest in inorganic chemistry and describes their electronic structures from the perspective of spectroscopic studies. Areas discussed include:* Bioinorganic Spectroscopy* Mixed Valence* Multiple Metal-Metal Bonds* Transition Metal Nitrosyls* Electronic Structure of Heme Sites* Spin Transition in Iron (II) Compounds* Neutron and Optical Spectra of Magnetically Ordered Crystals This work assumes a basic understanding of quantum chemistry and group theory. Although written by multiple contributors, the editors' holistic approach to the manuscript has ensured a uniform presentation.

-Journal of Chemical Education This newly available paperbound edition of Inorganic Electronic Structure and Spectroscopy includes all the material from the original clothbound edition published in 1999. Consisting of articles contributed by outstanding scientists from around the world, Volume I, Methodology presents the state of the art in this field, written in a style accessible to the well-read senior undergraduate, and yet still of superior value to the senior researcher. The first of a two-volume set, Volume I provides a thorough review of methodologies in transition metal spectroscopy and theoretical modeling, including:* Electron Paramagnetic Resonance Spectroscopy* IR, Raman, and Resonance Raman Spectroscopy* Newer techniques used in inorganic chemistry, such as polarized absorption spectroscopy* Luminescence spectroscopy* Laser spectroscopy, X-ray and absorption spectroscopy, and EXAFS* Three important chapters on traditional ligand field theory This work assumes a basic understanding of quantum chemistry and group theory and reflects the current state of development for many of the techniques used by practicing inorganic chemists. Although written by multiple contributors, the editors' holistic approach to the manuscript has ensured a uniform presentation.

Coordination Chemistry–XIV provides information pertinent to the fundamental characteristics and synthesis of coordination compounds. This book discusses the importance of undertaking accurate X-ray analysis of a wide-ranging series of complexes in order to derive more secure theoretical correlations. Organized into 13 chapters, this book begins with an overview of the properties of alkyl and aryl derivatives of transition elements. This text then describes the two methods that lead to transition metal complexes of carborane ligands, namely, polyhedral expansion and polyhedral contraction. Other chapters consider the argument that organo-transition metal complexes also consisting phosphines and similar ligands are often too kinetically inert to act as good models for catalytic processes. This book discusses as well the developments in the mechanisms of substitution in transition metal complexes. The final chapter deals with the calibration of low resolution spectrometers. This book is a valuable resource for chemists, organometallic chemists, and inorganic chemists.
