Organogermanium Compounds
Understand the chemistry of organogermanium compounds with this thorough and cutting-edge reference
Discovered comparatively late in the history of chemistry, germanium has become one of the most technology-critical elements in modern industry. Germanium and its inorganic and organic derivatives found widespread applications in fiber- and infrared-optics, electronics, polymerization catalysis, solar electric technology, nanotechnology, chemotherapy, and more. Organogermanium compounds containing carbon to germanium chemical bonds, have applications in microelectronics, medicinal and health industries, and beyond.
Organogermanium Compounds: Theory, Experiment, and Applications, 2 Volume Set provides a comprehensive review of this class of compounds in two thorough volumes. It covers all modern aspects of these critically important compounds, including theoretical, synthetic, physico-chemical, and applied research. Reflecting the latest breakthroughs in this rapidly growing field, this book promises to serve as the high-level reference for those readers who are interested in organogermanium chemistry.
Organogermanium Compounds readers will also find:
* 19 chapters produced by leading global experts
* Descriptions of pivotal historical achievements in organogermanium research
* Coverage of the latest computational, synthetic, and applied breakthroughs
Organogermanium Compounds is a critical reference for researchers and professionals in a wide range of academic and industrial fields working with these fascinating compounds. This will also be helpful for university and college students, at both graduate and undergraduate levels.
