Book Description

March 21, 1997 0471188956 978-0471188957 2
The text will provide a set of problems covering mechanistic, structural and spectroscopic issues in inorganic chemistry. Specific areas to be covered include coordination chemistry, physiochemical aspects of solution chemistry, inorganic chemistry of biological systems (both natural biomolecules and bioinorganic models). Illustrative worked examples will be included. The problems will be categorized by topic chapters for ease of reference and use in courses. They will provide a valuable resource for instructors, providing a means of testing and developing the many principles covered in texts and advanced courses. Often students find it difficult to find practical problems to test the principles they have learned in class. This text will provide a series of questions to test understanding and worked examples as a pedagogical aid.

Editorial Reviews

From Book News

An introductory text demonstrating the relationship between classical inorganic chemistry and the chemistry of metal ions in biology. Written specifically as a teaching text, rather than a review, it presents many physical and chemical methodologies, assuming little prior knowledge of the field. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or. --This text refers to an alternate Hardcover edition.

From the Publisher

Bioinorganic Chemistry is an introductory volume that demonstrates the relationship between classical inorganic chemistry and the chemistry of metal ions in biology. It provides a clear and concise presentation of a large number of physical and chemical methodologies, yet it assumes a little prior knowledge of the field. Building from a basis in inorganic coordination and reaction chemistry, the author develops the biological chemistry of metal ions by consideration of biochemical topics rather than describing the chemistry of specific metals, cofactors or enzymes. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
