Author Description
This book is an expanded and updated version of Part III of the authors' previous work, Advanced Structural Inorganic Chemistry (OUP 2008). The original part deals with main-group elements, the rare-earth elements, transition-metal clusters, and supramolecular systems. In this new book, selected material from significant advances in the past decade has been added, with particular emphasis on compounds that exemplify new types of bonds such as sigma-hole, triel bond, tetrel bond, pnictogen bond, chalcogen bond, halogen bond, halogen-halogen interaction, aerogen bond, as well as quintuple and sextuple metal-metal bonds.Other new topics include actinide compounds, metallophilicity, heterometallic macrocycles and cages, com- and dis-proportionation reactions, hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs), halogen-bonded organic frameworks, halogen-halogen interactions in supramolecular frameworks, covalent organic frameworks (COFs), and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
Menrva's Summary
THE THESIS
This text investigates the evolving landscape of structural inorganic chemistry by cataloging new bonding phenomena and complex molecular architectures discovered across the periodic table. The authors, drawing on their extensive research backgrounds, provide an updated framework that builds upon their previous work to incorporate significant developments from the last decade. By synthesizing data on unconventional bonding types and advanced framework materials, the book establishes a comprehensive reference for modern chemical structures.
THE SCOPE MAP
What You Will Find
- Analysis of non-covalent interactions including sigma-hole, triel, tetrel, pnictogen, chalcogen, and halogen bonds.
- Examination of advanced metal-metal bonding, specifically quintuple and sextuple bonds.
- Technical overview of porous materials such as metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs).
- Discussion of actinide compounds and metallophilicity in supramolecular systems.
THE AUTHORITY PERSPECTIVE
Experts recognize this volume as a necessary update to foundational inorganic chemistry literature, particularly for its detailed classification of emerging bonding types. Readers frequently note the high level of technical density, making it a primary resource for graduate-level researchers and practitioners in the field.
