Coordination Chemistry

Coordination Chemistry
By R. Gopalan & V. Ramalingam

Coordination Chemistry by R. Gopalan and V. Ramalingam is a comprehensive textbook covering a subject that uniquely involves the application of quantum mechanics, spectroscopy, kinetics, catalysis, biology, and industrial chemistry. Written with these important interdisciplinary aspects in mind, the book addresses the growing significance of metal complexes in industrial applications, particularly in catalysis, as well as their role in biological processes within living cells.

Topics commonly covered include:

• Introduction to coordination chemistry
• Nomenclature of metal complexes
• Theories of coordination compounds
• Spectral and magnetic characteristics of metal complexes
• Stability of coordination compounds
• Chelates
• Isomerism of metal complexes
• Reactions of metal complexes
• Organometallic compounds
• Metal carbonyls and related compounds
• Industrial applications of organometallic compounds
• Biological coordination compounds
• Applications of coordination compounds
• Preparation of coordination compounds
• Solved spectral problems in coordination chemistry

Key features:

• Interdisciplinary approach connecting quantum mechanics, spectroscopy, and biology to coordination chemistry
• Strong emphasis on industrial applications, particularly in catalysis
• Coverage of biological coordination compounds such as haemoglobin and cytochrome
• Solved spectral problems included for practical understanding
• Clear, structured presentation suited for undergraduate and postgraduate study
• Comprehensive treatment of both classical and organometallic coordination chemistry

Perfect for:

• BSc and MSc Chemistry students
