Electrochemistry no longer is a specialist discipline, but has become a technique of major importance for most inorganic and organometallic chemists. Similarly, electron-transfer activation has led to great progress in transition-metal mediated organic and inorganic syntheses. This book provides a unique introduction and overview of the structure and reactions of transition-metal radicals, of transition-metal electrochemistry, and of electron-transfer activation, with emphasis on catalytic processes. Each chapter of this book includes numerous citations of the chemical literature, lots of...
