SCORPIONATES
II: CHELATING BORATE LIGANDS
Dedicated to Swiatoslaw Trofimenko
by Claudio Pettinari (University of Camerino, Italy)
Since their discovery by Swiatoslaw Trofimenko in 1967, poly(pyrazol-1-yl)borates
have been considered as one of the most useful ligands in modern coordination
chemistry. The term “scorpionate” has been used to describe the interchange
between bidentate and tridentate coordination modes by these ligands that has
been employed for the synthesis of complexes with virtually every metal in the
periodic table, having applications in diverse fields ranging from homogeneous
catalysis to bioinorganic chemistry.
This all-inclusive
reference book continues where Trofimenko's original work left off. It not only
includes discussions on all new ligands reported from 1999 to date, but also
introduces new ligands that have yet to be touched upon in other titles, such
as scorpionates based on S donors or P donors. As such, this comprehensive
volume is a “must have” for all researchers who utilize
this family of molecules. http://www.worldscibooks.com/chemistry/p527.html see also memoriam
