Advances in Boron Chemistry, Special Publication (Royal Soc of Chemistry (Great Britain)), No 201 - used book

Advances in Boron Chemistry reports on the latest developments in the field, with contributions from the international community of boron chemists. Covering aspects of theoretical, inorganic, organic and materials sciences, the research presented here is informative and highly relevant to newcomers in the field, as well as introducing innovative ideas to established boron chemists. As an electron-poor element, boron has long been regarded as a rule-breaker. However, important developments in chemistry have started with this element and its derivatives, and this is reflected in the variety of contributions, written by leading scientists in the field. With topics including the aromaticity of borane, chiral organoboranes, boron polymers, transition metal complexes, carboranes and diboranes and organoboranes for synthesis, Advances in Boron Chemistry is a vital source of up-to-date information for everyone with an interest in the subject. As the first book of its type for many years, its unique content will be invaluable to graduates, teachers and researchers.
