Charge Transfer Photochemistry of Coordination Compounds [Hardcover]

Otto Horvath (Editor), K. L. Stevenson (Editor)

Book Description

Publication Date: December 20, 1992

Summarizes the results of recent studies on charge transfer photochemistry of metal complexities. Each chapter discusses the photoredox properties of complexes of a series of metals which belong to the same column of the periodic table, including both transition and main group metals (for those that show photoactivity). Foremostly, the book covers photoinduced processes in which the primary step is a charge transfer reaction of the excited metal complex. It is concerned primarily with descriptions and discussions of the photochemistry of complexes themselves, with less emphasis on theoretical discussions. The book is aimed at professional photochemical researchers as well as students and chemists who are interested in organometallic and inorganic metal complexes and plan to become familiar with their charge transfer photochemistry.

Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

This book summarizes the results of studies on charge transfer photochemistry of metal complexes of the past few years. The material covered is organized in such a manner that each chapter discusses the photoredox properties of complexes of a series of metals which belong to the same column of the periodic table, including both transition metals and main group metals (for those that show photoactivity). The book highlights photoinduced processes in which the primary step is a charge transfer reaction of the excited metal complex. It is concerned primarily with in-depth descriptions and discussions of the photochemistry of complexes themselves , with less emphasis on theoretical discussions. --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.
