Summary "This book addresses the chemistry of the second and third row d-block metals, assuming a knowledge of the chemistry of the first row metals. Initial chapters summarize occurrence and uses, periodic trends in properties, aqueous solution chemistry, redox properties, and the range of coordination numbers available to the heavier metals. Discussion of magnetic properties and electronic spectra focuses on differences between the 3d and heavier metals. The final three chapters introduce metal-metal multiple bonds, selected clusters with [pi]-donor ligands, and polyoxometallates."--BOOK JACKET
