Comprehensive coverage of the properties and applications of dithiolene complexes

Dithiolenes are sulfur–containing ligands whose complexes with transition metals represent a growing area of interest in chemistry. Recent discoveries of dithiolene complexes include magnetic materials, superconductors, nonlinear optical materials, luminescent sensors, and enzyme catalytic centers, which promise a variety of important applications.

Dithiolene Chemistry: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications is the first book devoted solely to dithiolene complexes, covering both their noteworthy properties and their potential applications. Edited by the winner of the 2000 American Chemical Society Award in Inorganic Chemistry, Edward Stiefel, Dithiolene Chemistry features a selection of significant, up–to–date reviews by internationally recognized researchers. Topics include:

• Synthesis of ligands and complexes
• Structures and structural trends in dithiolene complexes
• Spectroscopic and electronic structural properties
• Chemical and electrochemical reactivity
• Luminescence and photochemistry of metal–dithiolene complexes
• Dithiolene complexes in detection
• Solid–state properties (electronic, magnetic, optical) of materials based on dithiolene complexes
• Dithiolenes in biology

Dithiolene Chemistry is Volume 52 of the Progress in Inorganic Chemistry series, which provides a forum for critical, authoritative evaluations of advances in every area of the discipline. This volume continues the successful tradition of the series by elucidating the rapidly expanding study of dithiolenes, which have applications in many areas of chemistry. Advanced students and academic and industry professionals working in inorganic chemistry, materials science, physics, sensors, and the biosciences will all find in Dithiolene Chemistry a much–needed, up–to–date resource for this important area of chemistry.
