Title: Molecular Electrochemistry of Inorganic, Bioinorganic and Organometallic Compounds
Description: This is the first book about the application of electrochemical methods to the study of properties of coordination compounds (including inorganic, bioinorganic and organometallic complexes), a matter of rapidly increasing interest over the past few years. It deals, in an interdisciplinary way, with the developments achieved in such areas as electrosyntheses, redox properties-structure-reactivity relationships, dynamics of electron transfer, electroinduced reactivity, electroactivation of metal centres and ligands (including small molecules of biological or industrial interest), electrocatalysis, reaction mechanisms, spectroelectrochemistry and electrochemistry in non-conventional conditions (e.g. application of ultrmicroelectrodes to the study of fast reactions). These themes, treated by authoritative scientists, are of particular significance to inorganic, bioinorganic, organometallic or organic chemists, who have considered the application of electrochemistry to the investigation of their compounds, as well as to electrochemists who have turned their attention to solving chemical problems in those fields. The book will be valuable to those already experienced in the field as well as to newcomers; although addressed to senior researchers, it can also be of interest to postgraduates and, in some aspects, to advanced undergreaduates.
