Coordination Chemistry ( Complexes of platinum group metals) , a product of extensive and wide-range research, illustrates synthesis of the complexes of 1,1-bis( diphenylphosphino)methane or 1,1-bis( diphenylphosphino)ethene with platinum group metals and group VI metals. The book targets all kinds of specialists in inorganic chemistry .Throughout the book you will witness how the author prepares a variety of complexes which work as superior catalysts. In addition, this book describes the prototropic rearrangement of phenylacetylide complexes to diene complexes, dichlorocarbene adducts in presence of phase-transfer catalyst, and the synthesis of the five-membered ring complexes of platinum (IV).
