First sentence: NMR spectroscopy is the only technique capable of determining the three-dimensional structures of macromolecules in solution at atomic resolution [1,2].
Description: The book collects a series of interdisciplinary experiments and theoretical studies on the metal-ligand interactions. It is both a review of the state of the art in the field and a guide to possible developments in the second millennium. Applications range from inorganic chemistry to surface science, metal enzymes, catalysis, and cluster sciences. The most recent methods are described, focusing attention on the common aspects of metal-ligand interactions that govern phenomena in different areas of chemistry, physics and biology.
