ADVANCED PRACTICAL INORGANIC AND METALORGANIC CHEMISTRY

While the boundaries between the areas of chemistry traditionally labeled as inorganic, organic, and physical are gradually diffusing, the practical techniques adopted by workers in each of these areas are often radically different. The breadth and variety of research classed as inorganic chemistry is readily apparent and can be quite daunting for newcomers who are likely to have only limited experience of the methodologies involved. This book has therefore been written to provide guidance for those unfamiliar with the techniques most often encountered in synthetic inorganic / metalorganic chemistry, with an emphasis on procedures for handling air-sensitive compounds.
