Metallabenzenes: An Expert View, will provide comprehensive coverage of all aspects of metallabenzene chemistry, including syntheses, reactions, physical properties (including structures), and theoretical treatments of metallabenzenes. The book will also present coverage of fused ring metallabenzenes, which includes compounds such as metallanaphthalenes, metallabenzofurans, and metallabenzothiophenes. Heterometallabenzenes and metallabenzenes that are pi-bound to other metal fragments will also be addressed. Written by a host of experts in the field, each chapter will summarize the key research and significant contributions of these leading scientists to metallabenzene chemistry. The final chapter, written by Professor Frenking, will review the computational studies that have led to the theoretical understanding of metallabenzenes. This chapter will also include a critical discussion of metallabenzene aromaticity, an area previously not reviewed by computational experts. This book will provide academics, researchers and graduate students with a comprehensive review of the recent advances in metallabenzene research, as told by the experts themselves. It will be of particular interest to those working in organometallic chemistry, aromaticity, coordination chemistry, theoretical chemistry, catalysis and materials science.
