At the heart of coordination chemistry lies the coordinate bond, in its simplest sense arising from donation of a pair of electrons from a donor atom to an empty orbital on a central metalloid or metal. Metals overwhelmingly exist as their cations, but these are rarely met ‘naked’ – they are clothed in an array of other atoms, molecules or ions that involve coordinate covalent bonds (hence the name coordination compounds). These metal ion complexes are ubiquitous in nature, and are central to an array of natural and synthetic reactions. Written in a highly readable, descriptive and accessible style Introduction to Coordination Chemistry describes properties of coordination compounds such as colour, magnetism and reactivity as well as the logic in their assembly and nomenclature. It is illustrated with many examples of the importance of coordination chemistry in real life, and includes extensive references and a bibliography.Introduction to Coordination Chemistry is a comprehensive and insightful discussion of one of the primary fields of study in Inorganic Chemistry for both undergraduate and non-specialist readers.

INTRODUCTION TO COORDINATION CHEMISTRY An accessible introduction to one of the primary fields of study in Inorganic Chemistry, revised to incorporate contemporary topics and applications Written in a highly readable, descriptive, and accessible style, Introduction to Coordination Chemistry examines and explains the interaction between metals and molecules that bind as ligands and the consequences of this assembly process. The book describes the chemical and physical properties and behavior of these complex assemblies and their applications. The contents of this book tell a story, taking the reader from fundamentals, including metal ions, ligands, metal-ligand bonding, and structure, to key concepts, such as stability, synthesis and mechanisms, properties, and characterization. Subsequent chapters address applications involving metals in biology, medicine, and industrial chemistry. Written by two highly qualified academics, this newly revised Second Edition of Introduction to Coordination Chemistry has been thoroughly updated to include full-color images throughout, as well as now including: Information on instrument-based experimental methods to reflect the increasing use of sophisticated, commercially available instruments in laboratory teachingAn expansion of the chapter Metals in Biology showing key developments in the vast field of metalloproteins and metalloenzymesAn updated description of polymetallic compounds and new discussions of metal-containing nanomolecules pertinent to advancements in nanotechnologyAn expanded discussion of organometallic compounds and catalysts and updating of Concept Keys to summarize key topics and further reading at the end of each chapterIntroduction to Coordination Chemistry is an ideal textbook resource for undergraduate inorganic chemistry students in their second or third year or at the intermediate level who have completed a general introductory chemistry course and are moving to a first specialist course in coordination chemistry. INORGANIC CHEMISTRY ADVANCED TEXTBOOK This series reflects the pivotal role of modern inorganic and physical chemistry in a whole range of emerging areas, such as materials chemistry, green chemistry and bioinorganic chemistry, as well as providing a solid grounding in established areas such as solid state chemistry, coordination chemistry, main group chemistry and physical inorganic chemistry.
