Metal Amide Chemistry

Written by internationally recognised leaders in the field, <i>Metal Amide Chemistry</i> is the authoritative survey of this important class of compounds, the first since Lappert and Power’s 1980 book “Metal and Metalloid Amides.” <p>An introduction to the topic is followed by in-depth discussions of the amide compounds of:</p> <ul> <li>alkali metals</li> <li>alkaline earth metals</li> <li>zinc, cadmium and mercury</li> <li>the transition metals</li> <li>group 3 and lanthanide metals</li> <li>group 13 metals</li> <li>silicon and the group 14 metals</li> <li>group 15 metals</li> <li>the actinide metals</li> </ul> <p>Accompanied by a substantial bibliography, this is an essential guide for researchers and advanced students in academia and research working in synthetic organometallic, organic and inorganic chemistry, materials chemistry and catalysis.</p>
