Photophysics of Organometallics (Topics in Organometallic Chemistry, Volume 29)

The series Topics in Organometallic Chemistry presents critical overviews of research results in organometallic chemistry. As our understanding of organometallic structure, properties and mechanisms increases, new ways are opened for the design of organometallic compounds and reactions tailored to the needs of such diverse areas as organic synthesis, medical research, biology and materials science. Thus the scope of coverage includes a broad range of topics of pure and applied organometallic chemistry, where new breakthroughs are being achieved that are of significance to a larger scientific audience.
The individual volumes of Topics in Organometallic Chemistry are thematic. Review articles are generally invited by the volume editors.

Chapters in this Volume:
* Photophysics and Photochemistry of Organometallic Rhenium Diimine Complexes
