The aim of this compilation has been to provide a comprehensive, non critical source of information concerning organometallic compounds. The scope is limi ed to the compounds containing at least one carbon-metal bond. The information includes methods of preparation, properties, chemical reactions, and applications. The First Edition comprised the literature from 1937 to 1958. The Second Edition is completely revised and extended through 1964. The literature prior to 1937 was thoroughly covered by E. Krause and A. von Grosse in ''Die Chemie der metall-organischen Verbindungen," Verlag von...

This formula index contains the compounds of all three volumes. The molecular formulae show metal atoms first, followed by carbon, hydrogen, and other nonmetal atoms arranged alphabetically. The monometallic and homo- polymetallic compounds are followed by hetero-bimetallic, -trimetallic, and -polymetallic compounds. Heterometallic compounds are listed under each metal. To make the use of the index easier, for the most part, simplified linear structural formulae are given after the molecular formulae. In the case of compounds containing complicated structures, such as fused carbocyclic,...
